Soul Purpose

Soul Purpose
By Charlie Hartwell

(Am) I just can’t wait to meet the Great Maker
(Em) But what if I’ve made his acquaintance before?
(Am) Once thought my spirit was made for my body
(Em) What if these fingers were made for my soul?
(F)Always thought choices I made here on earth
(Em) Determined my destiny forevermore
(Am) What if these brief days are part of a journey
(Em) Learning things here and I’ve learned some before
(Am) These thoughts came as I stared at a body I loved
(Em) Cold and white, in ashes the same night
(Am) Realized, three days fore he died
(Em) In a deep conversation that was shared just with eyes
(F) Always talked to a body I recognized
(Em) But as we gazed deeply, I (D) knew
I was not talking to a body (Em) but a soul (Am)
(Dm) What is myself? (Am) Who is in me?
(Dm) Why have I come? (Am) Who have I been?
(G) Cocoons help a butterfly (Am) grow
(Dm) What need I learn? (Am) What must I give?
(Dm) What must (F) I shed? (Am) Did I choose (C) this?
(G) Cocoons help a butterfly (Am) grow
(Dm) Who needs my (F) touch? (Am)Who can I (C) heal?
(Dm) What is true (F) love? (Am) Who can I (C) bless
(G) Cocoons help a butterfly (Am) grow
(G) Cocoons help a butterfly (C) grow
(G) Cocoons help a butterfly (Am) grow
