I'm Alive

I have been hearing parts of this song on the radio. It has caught my ear, but I haven't heard it all the way through. So today, I caught a little of it and the title and artist was displayed on my radio, so I came home and googled the lyrics. I lurve this song. It is by Flyleaf.

Some of the comments I have read about this song say it is about God. I can see that.  One comment read that the composer will be truly "alive" when she meets God.  It helps me to know that God will NEVER leave me while here on Earth and then I will be alive with him in Heaven.  Ryan is home now and for that, I am thankful even though I wish he was with me.      

"All Around Me"

My hands are searching for you
My arms are outstretched towards you
I feel you on my fingertips
My tongue dances behind my lips for you

This fire rising through my being
Burning I'm not used to seeing you

I'm alive, I'm alive

I can feel you all around me
Thickening the air I'm breathing
Holding on to what I'm feeling
Savoring this heart that's healing

My hands float up above me
And you whisper you love me
And I begin to fade
Into our secret place

The music makes me sway
The angels singing say we are alone with you
I am alone and they are too with you

I'm alive, I'm alive

I can feel you all around me
Thickening the air I'm breathing
Holding on to what I'm feeling
Savoring this heart that's healing

I can feel you all around me
Thickening the air I'm breathing
Holding on to what I'm feeling
Savoring this heart that's healing

And so I cry
The light is white
And I see you

I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive

I can feel you all around me
Thickening the air I'm breathing
Holding on to what I'm feeling
Savoring this heart that's healing

Take my hand
I give it to you
Now you own me
All I am
You said you would never leave me
I believe you
I believe

I can feel you all around me
Thickening the air I'm breathing
Holding on to what I'm feeling
Savoring this heart that's healed

This is the acoustic version. This is not what you hear on the radio, but I like this video better.
