Take Me With You: The Being Experience

Take me to the places
Take me to the faces
Then I can see their eyes
In them I'll know their lives
Let them tell me of their dreams
Let them tell me what they feel
I'll tell them that nothing is impossible
What they feel is truly real


I'll show them how to get there
I'll show them what they must do
I'll guide them step by step
I'll be right there with you
Just take me with you


Take me with you into their homes
Tell them don't be embarrassed
I'm not made of stone
Tell them I'm understanding
I'm penetrable and true
Tell them it doesn't matter whatever they're going through
Tell them to just remember I've been there too
Just take me with you


I'll help them with their plans
I'll direct their paths 
I'll steady their weary-soiled and barren hands 
Just tell them to climb aboard my ship
I'll take them safely to shore
For I'll be their captain
And this time they won't have to take a detour
Tell them though their feet may seem unstable
At the starting of their quest
If they just stay the course
I'll give them peace and rest


Tell them to "Walk on!"
I'll pick them up if they fall
No harm will come to them
I'll let them gently down 
Across that crimson crying wall
Say to them to "Heed the voice within!"
Be still their souls; for if they do
They truly win 
For never again
Will they be without a real-loving friend
Just take me with you


Tell them when they pull to the side of the road of life
I'll pull over too
We'll stay there together
Until a clearing comes through
Tell them I'll always be with them
Though sometimes they may think that I'm not there
Tell them that all they have to do is whisper my name
If they dare


Take me to the places
Take me to the faces
Take me with you


Take me to the soup kitchens
I'll eat there too
Take me down on the street corner
I'll hang out with you
Take me to the homeless
To that old abandoned house
Take me where they are
It doesn't matter if there's a rat or mouse
Take me to the junkyard
Where we'll find a car
I'll sleep with you tonight
Or wherever you are
I'll be your cover
You'll be safe and warm
No one will bother you
I'll keep you safe from harm


Take me to the places
Take me to the faces
Then I can see their eyes
In them I'll know their lives
Take me with you
Take me with you


Take me to the White House
Our country's in despair
Take me to the governments
I'll restore
I'll repair
I'll rid infestations
That consume our children
Our precious heirs


But you've got to take me with you


Take me to the mad houses
Where crack enslaves
I'll bring peace
Restore minds
Rid darkness
Free lives


If you only take me with you

At some point this sounds like a song; but then this is so inspiring. Excellent indeed!
