You offer a feast, the finest of wine;
You call me close, to drink and to dine.
Still, I would trade the bread for the crumb,
The joy of your face, to be comfortably numb.
My heart's intent
Broken and bent!
So whatever it takes to be by your side—
I’ll put it to death, my wandering eye—
Just hold me, dear Jesus, keep me awake.
I wanna be yours, I wanna be yours
Whatever it takes!
Words & Music: Luke Morton in collaboration with students from RUF@UW, 2021.
