Captured

by Stevie wonder

I heard your echo in the canyon
upon the timberline
You said these mountains were your invention
And so was this heart of mine
I heard you whisper on the water,
there on the mighty sea
You spoke of love deep as the ocean
You spoke of Your love for me
I am loved by the Father
I am loved by the Son
It is love that has captured
The heart of this wayward one
I heard your laughter in the sunrise,
amidst the morning birds
A song of freedom for all creation
And you sang me every word
I heard you singing in the silence,
a simple melody
Words of love, O I can hear it
My Father is very fond of me
*from the album |The Noise We Make|*

All I wanna do
All I wanna do
I’m Your prisoner by choice
I will rest at Your feet
And I’ll only lift my voice
When You want me to sing
It’s the beauty of Your covering that’s stealing my heart
And it’s the mystery of You that tears me apart
If I should die before I wake
I pray the Lord my soul to take
And if I should get a peaceful sleep
I wanna wake at my Father’s feet
All I wanna do is get into You
You got me captured
By Your love
All I wanna do is stay here with You
You got me raptured
Can’t get enough
Let’s go
The sun’s on the rise
The sleep’s in my eyes
The dew’s on the ground
The night is disguised
There’s hope in the air
I’m fresh off a prayer
The blue mountain bean is clearin’ my stare
I make recompense
It’s all makin’ sense
Like blood in my veins
You’re my sustenance
A moment of trust
The “me” becomes “us”
The “we” become “one”
Your gift is my gust of wind
‘Til we meet again
So faith, don’t fail me now
If you touch my heart
You can feel it pound
So faith, don’t fail me now
So faith, don’t fail me now
If you touch my heart
You can feel it poundin’
So faith, don’t fail me now
So faith, don’t fail me now
When I touch my heart
I can feel it pound
Gotta get myself up off this ground
Faith, don’t fail me now
You got me, and You won’t let go

It must mean something
When I close my eyes
Visions of You come to me and flood my mind
It must mean something
When my heart is true
All that I can think about is You
CHORUS
Everywhere I go You find me
Even when I run
I'm captured
I'm captured in You
Everywhere Your love surrounds me
I cannot escape
I'm captured
I'm captured in You
It must mean something
When I'm standing still
Yours is the only voice I wanna hear
It must mean something
That I've come this far
Lifting up my hands and offering my heart
CHORUS
You are the sky
You are the sea
You are the air I wanna breathe
You're everywhere
Your love lasts forever
And if I fall You won't let go
You hold me when I can't hold on anymore
You reach out and rescue me
CHORUS

Corrupt politicians, purveyors of law
Give us daily bread, but not a crumb more
Premiers, Presidents and leaders of men
Fleece us like sheep again and again
All we can do is suffer the grief
And shake our heads in disbelief
A penny here, a dollar there
We’re nickel’d and dime’d into despair
If we should ever come on days
When all would start to change their ways
There’d still be some who would only see
A brand new opportunity
I’d go along and wag my tail
But still they’d throw me in their jail
I watch the news and wonder why
They never seem to catch that guy
He knows the game as well as I
And that is why he won’t be
Captured
Now religious leaders speak out
Offensive words cast shadows of doubt
Those who listened but still haven’t heard
Live by the sword but they’ll die by the word
I sit in my room of closed windows and doors
And ponder my fate as I stare at the floors
If I never let anyone get close to me
Then maybe I can still remain free
Not powdered wigs nor robes of silk
Can ever govern me
Lest I’d be captured
