Below My Feet

You were cold

As the blood through your bones

And the light which led us from our chosen homes

Well I was lost

And now I sleep

Sleep the hours that I can't weep

When all I knew was steeped in blackened holes

I was lost

Keep the earth below my feet

For all my sweat, my blood runs weak

Let me learn from where I have been

Keep my eyes to serve and hands to learn

Keep my eyes to serve and hands to learn

And I was still

But I was under your spell

When I was told by Jesus all was well

For all must be well

Just give me time

You know your desires and mine

Wrap my flesh in ivory and in twine

For I must be well

Keep the earth below my feet

For all my sweat, my blood runs weak

Let me learn from where I have been

Keep my eyes to serve and hands to learn

Keep my eyes to serve and hands to learn

Keep the earth below my feet

For all my sweat, my blood runs weak

Let me learn from where I have been

Keep my eyes to serve and hands to learn

Keep my eyes to serve and hands to learn
