Lyrics

SHIFTING EDGE „¦2002 Juliet I. Spitzer

I was called to be a beam of support
Softly sharing your pain
An open heart, I¡¦d catch the rolling tears
I was the healer then.

I¡¦d come in the morning with a bounce in my step
Full of health and good cheer
Make my rounds, offer blessings and song
What a perfect career.
Now the tides have turned
I¡¦m on the other side
So small, so weak, so new
And the challenge I face with each passing stage
Is how to receive from You.

Turn Your ear to me when I¡¦m down
Do not hide Your face
Hear my prayer, let my cry come forth
Wrap me in Your embrace.

I¡¦m the shifting edge where the sand meets the sea
I am the disappearing foam
I¡¦m the raging peak of a wave crashing free
I¡¦m the calm at the end of the storm
¡¥Cause the tides have turned
I¡¦m on the other side
So small, so weak, so new
And the challenge I face with each passing stage
Is how to receive from You

Turn Your ear to me when I¡¦m down
Do not hide Your face
Hear my prayer, let my cry come forth
Wrap me in Your embrace.
