Lifted (Version #2)

She danced with me

She lifted me

Filled me with spirits

She made me see god

She made me feel god

She lifted me

High above the ocean

Across plains

And Holy seas

Above the ground

The dirt

And the stock

Above the flowerbeds

The grains

And the steam ships

She lifted me

Incredibly

To points untaken

Un-invented

Uninvited

Unreal

She lifted me

To visit with god

She surrounded me

With sunlight

And cathedral walls

She lifted me

Took me down on my knees

She lifted me

And pulled me back up to my place

Took me across the rivers

Under Country palaces and rolling walls

Under African skies and Buffalo roams

Under Hebrew sukkots and Japanese Temples

She lifted me

High above the earth

And never let me down

Never let me go

I am here

Right next to god

And I’ve got you over my knee.
