A Chance to Ring

With smiling eyes you asked of me
How would I like to be wild and free
Free as a clear cool mountain spring
Free as the sound of church bell’s ring

I respond to you that I would not
Want the battles a mountain stream’s fought
Nor hour on hour of lonely time
Awaiting my next chance to chime

Instead I would wish to be free as a dove
Spreading my wings to soak up your love
That I may come to where you are
And follow you like my guiding star.
