"C.S Lewis Song"

I'm re-discovering this amazing song by Brooke Fraser all over again. It's been on repeat mode ever since I watched Narnia on Sun, and started reading C.S Lewis' "Mere Christianity" again. It is such a poetic song, the language is just stunningly beautiful, and it's filled with so much wisdom.

"C.S Lewis Song" (Brooke Fraser)
============================
If I find in myself desires nothing in this world can satisfy
I can only conclude that I was not made for here
If the flesh that I fight is at best only light and momentary
Then of course I'll feel nude when to where I'm destined I'm compared

Chorus:
Speak to me in the light of the dawn
Mercy comes with the morning
I will sigh and with all creation groan
as I wait for hope to come for me

Am I lost or just less found?
On the straight or on the roundabout of the wrong way?
Is this a soul that stirs in me, is it breaking free,
wanting to come alive?
'Cos my comfort would prefer for me to be numb
And avoid the impending birth of who I was born to become

Bridge:
For we, we are not long here
Our time is but a breath, so we better breathe it
And I, I was made to live
I was made to love, I was made to know You
Hope is coming for me
Hope, He's coming
