Lyrics
The Ground You Shook
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I never knew you but you seemed to be, to me, a great man
Wise as a serpent and gentle as a hillside white lamb
Still i hear your voice
And i see your choice
It's written on us
I wish i'd know you and learned the way to walk the narrow path
But i am grateful that you left your words to follow like a map
Within the dark land you gave us a lamp
By which we might see
We heard your voice
We saw your choice
It's written on us
And we walk the ground that you shook
We read the words in your book
And learn how to break our own ground
All the lambs will roar beautiful sounds
