lyrics

My heart is like a stone

Heavy smooth and cold

My mind is like a whirling wind

That knows not where to blow



My ears tire from straining so

They’ve been deafened by the din

My eyes have been looking long

looking long for Him



My love is like the burning sun that never cannot shine

And I forever am my love’s and my love is mine

My love is like a roaring storm cloud pouring down his love

And I am like the desert crying “Who is like my love?”



“Beyond all of the longing, toiling and sighs

Lay down your burdens

Gaze in my eyes

Come away come away with me come drink from the streams 

Of my Spirit that calls to you and sings in your dreams”



My heart is like a hatching egg
cracking round the rim

My mind is like a risen bird 
dancing on the wind


My ears now pricked can hear the song 
hear the song of truth

My eyes are wide and looking up
Looking up at You



My love is like...



“Beyond...”



Be with us now

Give us Your heart

Don’t leave us alone

Speak to us now

Sing in our hearts

Breathe on these bones



Not in the earthquake

The wind or the rain

Not in the fire but never too far away

In spite of the darkness
In spite of the pain

Here in the moment and never to far away

about

The Longing Selmer, Tennessee

The Longing is music by John and Yvonne Cullimore.

We seek to bring music that will connect with you both in sound and poetry, melding loops and beats with hammered dulcimer, 12-string guitar and layers of vocals and harmonies.

More importantly is that we enjoy our music, and can use them for worship and prayer. We certainly do hope and pray that you can do the same.
