Gypsy

Today I'll be a gypsy, roaming through the land.
I'll be wonderfully, carefree, like pebbles in Your hand.
I'll run, and jump, and shout, to tell the world what You're about.
And when my adventure is through, I will not weep, for I still have You.
And though I am like fragile lace, You hold me in a tight embrace.
Then when the fireflies lift high, into the night time sky,
I'll shout, "My Savior has arisen! To me, true life, He's given."
