Reaching - Carolyn Arends[00:00:00]

Written by：Carolyn Arends[00:00:01]

There's a time I can recall[00:00:09]

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

Telling to the stars and the cookie jar[00:00:16]

And both were out of reach[00:00:20]

And later on in my high school[00:00:23]

It seemed to me a little cruel[00:00:27]

How the right words to say always seemed to stay[00:00:30]

Just out of reach[00:00:35]

Well I should not have thought it strange[00:00:38]

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

'Cause the more we learn the more we know[00:00:45]

We don't know anything[00:00:49]

But still it seems a tragic fate[00:00:52]

Living with this quiet ache[00:00:56]

The constant strain for what remains[00:01:00]

Just out of reach[00:01:04]

We are reaching for the future[00:01:09]

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

And no matter what we have we reach for more[00:01:16]

We are desperate to discover[00:01:23]

What is just beyond our grasp[00:01:27]

But maybe that's what heaven is for[00:01:31]

There are times I can't forget[00:02:05]

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

Trying not to squirm and to maybe learn[00:02:12]

A bit of what the preacher preached[00:02:16]

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

I felt a stirring in my heart[00:02:23]

And though I longed to see what could not be seen[00:02:26]

I still believed[00:02:31]

I guess I shouldn't think it odd[00:02:34]

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

The yearning deep within us tells us[00:02:41]

There's more to come[00:02:45]

So when we taste of the divine[00:02:49]

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

For one more taste of what awaits[00:02:56]

When heaven's gates are reached[00:03:00]

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

We are reaching for the past[00:03:09]

And no matter what we have we reach for more[00:03:13]

We are desperate to discover[00:03:20]

What is just beyond our grasp[00:03:24]

But maybe that's what heaven is for[00:03:28]

I believe that's what heaven is for[00:03:34]

There's a time I can recall[00:03:48]

Four years old and three feet tall[00:03:52]

Trying to touch the stars and the cookie jar[00:03:56]

And both were out of reach[00:04:00]
