Lyrics...

** Update: I added the video at the bottom so you can listen to the song if you want!

I love music. Song lyrics speak to me in a way that the written word just sometimes can't get through. I think I've always loved to sing, and this is part of it, but music just gets inside my head. There are songs that I feel have shaped me. Lyrics that will be in mind and in my heart forever. To some people, I'm sure this is crazy, but I just love music.

We were listening to this song by Brooke Fraser at some point this weekend, and I was struck again by how much I love the lyrics to this song, so I thought I'd share one of the songs that has really gotten in my head lately. If you haven't heard it, you should find it, and listen!

SHADOWFEET

Walking, stumbling

On these shadow feet

Toward home, a land that I’ve never seen

I am changing

Less and less asleep

Made of different stuff than when I began
And I have sensed it all along

Now fast approaching is the day

When the world has fallen out from under me

I’ll be found in you, still standing

When the sky rolls up and mountains fall on their knees

When time and space are through

I’ll be found in you

There’s distraction

Buzzing in my head

Saying in the shadows it’s easier to stay

But I’ve heard rumours of true reality

Whispers of a well-lit way

You make all things new

When the world has fallen out from under me

I’ll be found in you, still standing

Every fear and accusation under my feet

When time and space are through

I’ll be found in you

When time and space are through

I’ll be found in you

When time and space are through

I’ll be found in you
