unwritten

Lots of good stuff in this song

When we are born again, we are a blank slate, unwritten. Our past is washed away, we are at a beginning. Jesus is ready to guide our pen. If only we could just let go of our habits, our holds and ties to the past, we could open the dirty window and feel the illumination of the sun. I could go on and on and on... 
Just listen to the words and let God speak to you through the music.

unwritten by Natasha Beddingfield


I am unwritten, can't read my mind, I'm undefined
I'm just beginning, the pen's in my hand, ending unplanned

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find
Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten

I break tradition, sometimes my tries, are outside the lines
We've been conditioned to not make mistakes, but I can't live that way

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find
Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins

The rest is still unwritten

The song has great energy. It starts small and draws you in to the big ending.

It is in my song list on the front page. Down near the bottom. If you click on the last displayed song, it will scroll the list down. It is the last one.
