Gravity's Easy Way
How long
did planners, diggers, dirt haulers,
stonemasons,
food makers and water carriers
all labor
with vision, hope and ideals
to build the proud castle wall?
But look
now, it has fallen
Just as all things without foundation
do
They collapse and come apart in ceaseless change
and
since all things are without foundation
so
everything falls apart in slow or sudden collapse
but
let us not forget all the work we did
it gives us meaning
before
gravity
takes its easy way
How many days and nights
of dinners and jobs
houses and cars
parents children
wives and husbands
friends and teachers
have we shared our life with?
Workin' and lovin'
cryin' and laughin'
arguin' and celebratin'
prayin' and forgivin'
Now look
we are all passing
just as all things must
slowly or suddenly
everything just drifts away
But let us not forget
all the love we shared
it fills our feeling hearts
as gravity takes its easy way
Lord you have laid down your blessin'
We're all fallin'
apart
We're all fallin'
apart
Grace is jus chillin'
The winds of grace are always blowin'
just put up your sails
We're Thankful
Thank you God
Thank you
Thank you
Thank you
Thank you
Thank you
