Alone in the Desert
Alone I be, alone I stand,
surrounded by the desert sand.
Mountains tall, sky so blue,
my roots they search for only you.
From your touch I grow so green,
filled with you my life is seen.
Reaching high, reaching deep,
your drops of life wake my sleep.
Soon to come seeds of hope
in this world one learns to cope.
Alone I be, alone I stand,
a prickly cactus in this land.
