Kate Phillips: Music

Cocoon

(words-Kate Phillips music-Kate Phillips, Jay Pinto)
Cocoon

Take me to the center, bind me up
Keep me through the winter, bind me up
Wrap me in your hibernation
Season of transfiguration
Take me to the center, bind me up

Womb of Transformation, hold me in
Web of sanctification, hold me in
Perfect peace will surely come from
This quiet fire I dare not run from
Womb of Transformation, hold me in

In the darkness, dreaming of seasons coming
Freedom coming, meaning coming
Silent sleeping in anticipation of
Revelation, a new creation in me

God of Liberation, set me free
End this tribulation, set me free
Exorcists and dragon slayers
Cut me from these many layers
God of Liberation, set me free

And we’ll weave a silken prayer of new life
As we leave the grave behind…

And I’ll fly on wings unknown to angels
I will cry with tears of joy…
