permission to live

 

I want to love

I want to hide

I want to shine

I want to shy away

 

I'm trying to think

I'm trying to feel

I'm trying to give myself away

I'm trying to heal

 

I want permission to live

permission to try

permission to dance through this life

permission to die

 

I want permission to want

permission to need

permission to hope for Your joy

permission to live

 

permission to hear

permission to care

permission to have somebody else

be the one to be there

 

I'm trying to think

I'm trying to feel

I'm trying to give myself away

I'm trying to heal

 

I want permission to live

permission to try

permission to dance through this life

permission to die

 

I want permission to want

permission to need

permission to hope for Your joy

permission to leave
