Summer Solstice

Susan Ashton

It must have been the summer solstice 
When I first gave my heart to You 
The first day of a brand new season 
In a fevered passion for Your simple truth 
It was the longest I'd ever felt for anything 
And it gave my soul a song to sing. 

It must have been my adolescence 
That pulled me from my childlike faith 
But what I thought to be maturity 
Was just neglect that I tried to vindicate 
And I went drifting on the wind like the autumn leaves 
But when I fell I landed on my knees. 

So can You throw Your arms around me and walk me home 
I've wandered off way too far for way too long 
And standing broken in this wilderness of shame 
I have found my only strength is in your name 
Oh, Father please can You undo what I've done 
And get me back to square one. 

I never saw that blizzard coming 
Just woke up and ice was on the ground 
And there were times this beating heart of pride 
Was so stubborn it refused to make a sound 
But now I'm feeling so out of my element 
Frozen in the winter of my discontent. 

So can You throw Your arms around me and walk me home 
I've wandered off way too far for way too long 
And standing broken in this wilderness of shame 
I have found my only strength is in your name 
Oh, Father please can You undo what I've done 
And get me back to square one. 

And with the spring comes the thaw 
Melting my heart reviving all 
It comes full circle and then 
It's summer solstice again. 

So can You throw Your arms around me and walk me home 
I've wandered off way too far for way too long 
And standing broken in this wilderness of shame 
I have found my only strength is in your name 
Oh, Father please can You undo what I've done 
And get me back to square one. 

Back to the summer solstice. 

Take me back. 

I wanna go back...
