The Outstretched Tree

Reaching hearts in ball and chain
Walking through life weighing down
Holding back the greatness of He
Pushing back the outstretched tree

Lonely, dying, crying for one
Balling up in padded corners
Knowing what a price to be
Pushing back the outstretched tree

Loving once and knowing best
Turning round to walk away
Tossing, turning seeking rest
Pushing back the outstretched tree

Reaching out to those in pain
Arms open wide to finger tip
Sin on shoulders forgiveness still
Pushing back the outstretched tree
