Safe Haven

My papa was a big 'ol man

He held the world and me in the palm of his hand

He held us altogether

The family corner stone

His voice was deep just like his fate

He'd always call me, sugar babe

And what I wouldn't give to hear I love you one more time

He loved to read John 3:16

Tapped along to hymns we'd sing

He left us so much more than earthly things

Sometimes when there's no answer

Or no reason for the pain

And I just can't wrap my head around the wire of things that come my way

I still believe you hold a place for us in heaven

So even when my faith on earth is shaken

You're my safe haven

He said my home's not here, no I'm not bound

My home is built on higher ground

And where I'm going, oh goodbye don't mean a thing

There's gonna be some things I miss

But don't forget God promises we'll be together on the other side

Sometimes when there's no answer

Or no reason for the pain

And I just can't wrap my head around the wire of things that come my way

I still believe you hold a place for us in heaven

So even when my faith on earth is shaken

You're my safe haven

Ooh, ooh, oh

It's comfort for my heart that breaks

To know you're in a better place

And that I'll see your loving face again

I still believe you hold a place for us in heaven

So even when my faith on earth is shaken

You're my safe haven

You're my safe haven

My papa was a big 'ol man

He held the world and me in the palm of his hand
