My new found love

Okay, I love Bebo Norman. Can't get enough of him. I love the beat, the words, and his voice. I have been listening to his music for about two hours and want to share one of my favorites. Maybe it won't be the same reading instead of listening. But, you can try.

Cover me.
Cover up my tears.
Cover up this man
Who's covered up in fear.
I need a peace of mind.
I need a piece of you
To cover all that's gone and everything's that new.
You unveil me with your mercy.
I want to breathe you in.
You unfold me, then you hold me.

Chorus:
Cover up my heart.
Cover up my soul.
Cover up this world and everything I know.
You cover up the sky.
You cover up the sea.
Cover up the mountain and every part of me.
Every single breath I breathe, cover me.

I am still alive
And covered up in years.
Covered up in lines,
As innocence appears.
So give me peace of mind.
Give me a piece of you.
To cover all that's old with everything's that new.
You unveil me with your mercy.
I want to breathe you in.
You unfold me, then you hold me

Chorus

You unveil me with your mercy.
I want to breathe you in.
You unfold me, then you hold me.
I want to shed that skin.
You unveil me with your mercy.
You unfold me when you hold me.
You invade me,
Would you take me away?

Chorus



Imagine asking God to "cover up" everything. I love how God can do that. He can give me a piece of him as well as a peace of mind. He eases my worries and calmes my spirit. I have fears and a past I don't want to remember. Yet, He makes everything new with His mercy. And best of all, He never leaves me; He is always there to "hold me."
