Let Us Live Lives Of Deepness
Michael Kroth • August 5, 2018
Life is too important to waste
Let us live lives of deepness.
Deep loves, deep hurts,
Deep passions, deep convictions,
And deep questions.
Let us live lives of vastness.
Vast imagination, vast dreams,
Vast vision, vast mission,
And vast hope.
Let us live lives that matter,
Work that shatters,
Friends who gather,
And baby pitter patter.
Let us speak, roar untamed,
Unsquelched, unfamed,
Soul unslain and
Heart unchained.
Let us live lives of deepness.
Deep loves, deep hurts,
Deep passions, deep convictions,
And deep questions.
