The Way it Should Be: A Prayer of the Two
ⓒ Drexel Rayford, Vagrant’s Chapel Music, 2020


It’s awesome this gift of gratuitous Love.
I’m a handyman who can fix every need.
I have this talent to nurture lost souls.
Where there’s hunger, I know how to feed.

Now, isn’t that just who You are?
Isn’t that the way I should be?
Finding my life in living for others,
Is that the heart of our creed?

But it’s your Grace that makes me whole.
It’s been your place at the heart of my soul.
And the love I seek is alive in me.
Loving You, Loving me.


I’ve found my freedom in living for others
For the folks who depend upon me.
It gives me a rush to answer their longing,
To feel their joy is rooted in me.

Now isn’t that just who you are?
Isn’t that the way I should be?
But this craving to satisfy others’ desires
Has become like a poison to me.

It’s Your Grace that makes me whole.
It’s been Your place at the heart of my soul.
And the love I seek is alive in me.
Loving you, Loving me

Your Love in me is already True. Loving me, Loving You.
