lyrics

Sing to me the song about that place where I can hide
You sang when I was young with arms around me
Whisper in my ear of the one who's always there
Tell me of the Son who died to save me

I see him everywhere you go, in every yes and every no you're loving me still
And if I reach out to hold your hand, request the honor of this dance when everybody's looking, they fade away

I love you, you know I do
And I will greet the morning to your smile
Hoping you would know the truth
That I'll have waited just to walk that mile with you

I pushed you off the walk one day and barely 'scaped alive
You've always been so sensitive but you know I need it
A bigger heart there never was and yet no smaller pride
In his grace you'd found a place and you know I see it

Yesterday I'm sure that I was just a child
What would you have done to keep me there well
Some things never change, this heart is still the same
And I won't walk away if you sing to me again

"Quite apart from that this album is extraordinary on its own merits there are few artists willing to expose their talents to such a sparse instrumental background, and you need to listen to it and discover its beauty for yourself."
