We will be doing more music-related episodes in the future, but today I wanted to share one of my favourite Lewis-inspired songs. It is performed by Brooke Fraser and the “C.S. Lewis Song”:
If I find in myself desires nothing in this world can satisfy,
Brooke Fraser, C.S. Lewis Song
I can only conclude that I was not made for here
If the flesh that I fight is at best only light and momentary,
Then of course I’ll feel nude when to where I’m destined I’m compared
Speak to me in the light of the dawn
Mercy comes with the morning
I will sigh and with all creation groan as I wait for hope to come for me
Am I lost or just found? on the straight or on the roundabout of the wrong way?
Is this a soul that stirs in me, is it breaking free, wanting to come alive?
Cos my comfort would prefer for me to be numb
An avoid the impending birth of who I was born to become
For we, we are not long here
Our time is but a breath, so we better breathe it
And I, I was made to live, I was made to love, I was made to know you
Hope is coming for me
Hope, he’s coming
