Island

i'm ready now
to go places i've never seen
and i am
ready to hear a sound in me
that i have
never ever known
before

and when i go
you know i won't be alone
 a nucleus, they
are my home away from home
and we are
the temple of the Holy
Ghost

and when i speak
i'll hear my voice in triplicate
and when i dance
it will be multiplied and
heaven sent
because i will not be
dancing alone

onward and on now
we are set to go
not alone
for we carry the great
I Am
and He has
even proceeded us
Jesus, Jesus

our Maker proceeds us

i carry in heart the
loftiest throne
for He who
sits upon it is strong
and He will
bring all wrong to bear
sending blessings down
thin air

even as i
contemplate a death
the sister of my childhood friend
we're embarking on our "just begin"
and on that distant shore
we'll be walking
in the will of the Lord
we'll be skipping
through the open Door

on an island one
journey will surely end
but on this island
another one will just begin
so we take heart
and carry in our hearts the mountains
the deer, our grammies and our papas
but most of all those mountains
those ever turning
Blue Ridge Mountains

and we are a temple for His Presence
and we know for sure the way
we are certain this is true
fast approaching is the day

our journey will start and end
and start again
with the days we have
and the years we spend
on that beautiful, rainy
island
