Dear God from Shine by Lilianna Parker
Written while processing my momβs death nine months after she passed and the sorrow that runs so deep and long. My mother was a violinist so the sound of the instrument is a poetic duet. The prayer is a reflection of being raised in the church. January β24

Lyrics
Dear God, what am I going through
Canβt find my way back to you
Dear God, help me with my troubled heart
I want to dance and sing with you
CHORUS
Let me fly like an eagle
Let me float in the white clouds
Let me soar high in the blue sky
Where my heart is warm and shining bright
Dear God, let me feel my momβs embrace
Her gentle laugh, her fatherβs grace
Dear God, Iβm remembering the tender glow
Itβs hard on Earth to stay in the flow
Chorus
Dear God, Let me reach that open place
To see your love in every face
Dear God, Let me live so buoyantly
All lifeβs big trials flow easily
Chorus
