shelter

in the arms of the good Father
you can go to the deep water
where the questions we have left unspoken
come out in the open

we will find shelter here

so i lay down what i cannot hold in my hands
every sorrow and hope spinning out of control
and here i find sweet resolution comes in letting go

and we will find shelter here

when i look back i can see
and when i am old i'll remember these things
like a mountain of stone
and the longing that makes me believe

there is a tree by the blue river
where the shade stretches wide over
in this breaking we are hand and glove

we will find shelter here
