Dandelions in a Vase

I used to listen to ska.... anyone remember that?


...Anyone?


Well... there was a time when my sister’s 1970’s convertible plymouth valiant blasted The Supertones via tape-deck... Those were the good days.

Recently, I’ve been replaying pieces of the the following song from Five Iron Frenzy in my head. It’s been stuck there, I don’t know why, but I didn’t realize how much I needed it.

Fathomless Your endless mercy,
Weight I could not lift.
Where do I fit in this puzzle,
What good are these gifts?
Not a martyr, or a saint,
Scarcely can I struggle through.
All that I have ever wanted,
Was to give my best to You.

Lord, search my heart,
Create in me something clean.
Dandelions
You see flowers in these weeds.
