Solid Ground

© Anne Sumner 2014

 

Long ago, in the ice among the snow, there was a cave up high
And I was there, hiding out upon the mountain 'til the sun would rise
And in the dawning light I found
That love was the only way down

I heard your voice from the mountain top
I heard you call me down
And this restless soul like a stone will roll
'Til I find some solid ground

Light and shade, the day is dawning in the beauty of the frozen mist
My mind is clear, my heart is thawing and I've never seen the world like this
And all the things that block my way
Grow smaller as night turns to day

I heard your voice from the mountain top
I heard you call me down
And this restless soul like a stone will roll
'Til I find some solid ground

Lay me down, I wanna feel the light of your love as it shines on me
All the things I'll ever be, or ever feel, are hidden here, beneath our feet
And as you give me space to grow
Your kindness is all that I know

I heard your voice from the mountain top
I heard you call me down
And this restless soul like a stone will roll
'Til I find some solid ground

Come with me, I wanna be the one who loves you 'til your heart can rest
I have been the one to watch you fight your battles with the lies in your head
And I would never let you down
Or get tired of helping you out

I heard your voice from the mountain top
I heard you call me down
And this restless soul like a stone will roll
'Til I find some solid ground
