Circle of Your Love (Lyrics)

Circle of Your Love
(Verse 1)
Lord, have mercy on me!
I could hear the pilgrim’s plea
As he walked across the lonesome valley;
Is life but a roadside inn
That ends where it begins
All in some long-forgotten alley?
Lead me to your devotion
As the river seeks the ocean
May I see your face again.

(Chorus)
There is a river
From the mountains to the sea;
There is a rainbow
From now to eternity
In the circle of your love
In the circle of your love
In the circle of your love
I shall be free.

(Verse 2)
Pain and pleasure spin on earth
A womb of light to give us birth
To a world beyond all pain and sorrow;
To a world so bright and new
To a world so old and true
To a life still younger than tomorrow.
Sweet Lord if you take me
If you will not forsake me
Then will I return to you.
(Chorus)
(Instrumental)

(Bridge)
As the river flows forever
And the rainbow never ends;
Your love is with me always
You are my true friend.

(Verse 3)
Into the light we all must go
Surely as the river’s flow;
As we hear your sweet song from above
Who could ever glorify
The beauty of the butterfly
Born into the light like a dove;
Lord, hear my devotion
May this drop become the ocean
In the lap of your love where we lie.
(Chorus)
