Here in the light, here in this place
with stones and storms and sorrow gathered ’bout
beyond the shadows, if I look the other way
I find joy in the heart of my doubt.
There ar many ways to find my way back home
Through ups and downs, and all the outs and ins
And at the moment where joy and sorrow meet:
Joy Wins
Peace in the journey is sometimes hard to find
when space and time and love seem out of synch
Thinking on the days when I gave so much away
I’m closer to my home than I might think.
I’m asking for a miracle, awaiting a reply
Immersed in the beauty all around
In these fields where I roam the circle is complete:
Joy Wins
If death is the end, then how could life make sense
I search for peace, forgiveness for my sins
and at the final moment when life ends:
Joy Wins
Sometimes wicked came my way
Sand shifted, towers swayed
My world has tumbled to the ground
Just when I thought I’m safe and sound
Bodies may break and fall apart
Mine was broken from the start
I was never safe from fear and harm
But I wasn’t alone in the storm
‘Cause I’ve got the hands that hold me
and the ties that bind
I’ve got the dreams that guide me
and the love I find - there’s the love I find
Digging deep inside a broken heart
I found myself wandering in the dark
Everything had to come to an end
Before my world could start again
But I’ve got the hands that hold me
And the ties that bind
I’ve got the dreams that guide me
and the love I find - there’s the love I find
Through adversity and strife
And the detours that seem to mark our life
Look for the strength, inside and out
That reminds us what life’s all about
Because we’ve got the hands that hold us
And the the ties that bind
We’ve got the dreams that guide us
and the love we’ll find
There’s the love we’ll find.
