Raise your glass high
|
||
|
|
And share with me in my joys and grievings
|
||
|
|
I toast to the mountains and valleys
|
||
|
|
To the future and the days gone by
|
||
|
|
I invite you in with good humor and levity
|
||
|
|
All I have is yours and I pray that you drink deeply
|
||
|
|
My cup has been emptied
|
||
|
|
So I may see what it tastes like to be free
|
||
|
|
Cause for so long this glass has owned me
|
||
|
|
Focused on the chalice rather than what it contained
|
||
|
|
So I gave all of worth to the needy and the rest to the sea
|
||
|
|
Then I looked around at all of the beautiful things that I had gained
|
||
|
|
What can a glass speak of its contents
|
||
|
|
And can it boast at its filling?
|
||
|
|
What else could it do but mutter a quiet thanks
|
||
|
|
So it is that I look forward to my spillings
|
||
|
|
For I am sure that such times are the only thing steadying my hands from their violent shaking
|
||
|
|
So with gladness in my heart and hope in my eyes
|
||
|
|
I drink to my fill of Your celebration wine
|
||
|
|
And as I pour glass after glass
|
||
|
|
I'll lift it high
|
||
|
|
(I'll lift You high)
|
||
|
|
And give a hearty toast to life
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
