When I dare

It is in your canopy shade

That I dare

All that I dare

Lay it all bare

Oh in your care!


If I dare

It is in your bower of expanse!

That I dare

When I dare

Oh is it not fair?


That when I dare

I look to you for a glance to share?

Because when I dare

It is in your eternal grace

Oh that I dare when I dare


And when I dare

Inviting eyes full of glare

It is in your ruthless presence

That an expression of ruth do I too wear

Oh as I continue to dare~


And dare I dare

Again and oh look where!

All the time in your snare

In awe of your all-encompassing lair

Oh and still I dare as I yet dare to dare.
