Fully Alive
Fully Alive
Words & Music by Bryan Sirchio
I want to open my heart a little wider
Let Spirit in a little deeper
Love with a Love that’s on fire
And be fully alive
There is a phrase…that comes to us
From the Church father… Irenaeus
The Glory of God…is a human
Fully alive…fully alive!
Chorus
Jesus proclaimed…good news to the poor
Hearts that are broken…will all be restored
Christ said it’s time…for Jubilee
Perfect release…everyone free!
Chorus
How does a rose…open its heart?
And give this world…its beautiful art
Encouraged by Light…warm on its being
It casts fear aside…and opens up wide…
Chorus
Note: 3rd verse was drawn heavily from the Sufi Mystic poet Hafiz’s “It Felt Love”
