Reaching - Carolyn Arends[00:00:01]

Written by：Simply Carolyn Arends[00:00:04]

There's a time I can recall[00:00:07]

Four years old and three feet tall[00:00:12]

Trying to touch the stars and the cookie jar[00:00:15]

And both were out of reach[00:00:19]

And later on in my high school[00:00:22]

It seemed to me a little cruel[00:00:26]

How the right words to say[00:00:29]

Always seemed to stay[00:00:31]

Just out of reach[00:00:34]

Well I should not have thought it strange[00:00:37]

That growing causes growing pains[00:00:41]

Cause the more we learn the more we know[00:00:44]

We don't know anything[00:00:48]

But still it seems a tragic fate[00:00:51]

Living with this quiet ache[00:00:55]

The constant strain for what remains[00:00:59]

Just out of reach[00:01:03]

We are reaching for the future[00:01:08]

We are reaching for the past[00:01:12]

And no matter what we have we reach for more[00:01:15]

We are desperate to discover[00:01:22]

What is just beyond our grasp[00:01:26]

But maybe that's what heaven is for[00:01:30]

There are times I can't forget[00:02:04]

Dressed up in my Sunday best[00:02:08]

Trying not to squirm and to maybe learn[00:02:11]

A bit of what the preacher preached[00:02:15]

And later lying in the dark[00:02:19]

I felt a stirring in my heart[00:02:22]

And though I longed to see[00:02:26]

What could not be seen[00:02:28]

I still believed[00:02:30]

I guess I shouldn't think it odd[00:02:33]

Until we see the face of God[00:02:37]

The yearning deep within us tells us[00:02:40]

There's more to come[00:02:44]

So when we taste of the divine[00:02:48]

It leaves us hungry every time[00:02:52]

For one more taste of what awaits[00:02:55]

When heaven's gates are reached[00:02:59]

We are reaching for the future[00:03:05]

We are reaching for the past[00:03:08]

And no matter what we have we reach for more[00:03:12]

We are desperate to discover[00:03:19]

What is just beyond our grasp[00:03:23]

But maybe that's what heaven is for[00:03:27]

I believe that's what heaven is for[00:03:33]

There's a time I can recall[00:03:47]

Four years old and three feet tall[00:03:51]

Trying to touch the stars and the cookie jar[00:03:55]

And both were out of reach[00:03:59]
