Time - John Lucas

My heart has known the winters

And my feet have known the snow

But mine eyes have seen the glory

Of a seed begin to grow

There is a time to uproot, darling

But most days just hold on tight

For there’s a time for darkness, honey

But dawn will always beat the night

Sometimes death will come calling

When you’ve been good and warned

And other times its cold hands will cradle

Dreams yet to be born

There is a time to dance on sorrow

And a time to kiss her cheek

There is a tim to mourn in silence

But justice achs to hear you speak

And I don’t know the end, or tomorrow’s story

But I have found the one who gives me rest

And I will make my bed in His promises

For He holds true when nothing’s left… When nothing’s left

There is a time when laughter will echo

Through your halls of peace

But war is known to change your locks

And carry off the family keys
