Knowing that your heart’s content
was the thing that shut their mouths
watching as you value
someone more than yourself
and you taught it well
Send us right away
Our girl doesn’t waste her breath
She stands like a sage
She moves but she never moves away from you
Even as the tears fall
the smile never leaves
wonder in the heartache
that they will never see
that is everything
and you’re watching everything around you slowly start to fade
but you’re holding on to love even though your heart starts to break




Behind the Song:
"My sister-in-law went through one of the hardest things in her life this last fall when she lost her first child due to a miscarriage. During this period I learned from her, first hand, how to trust God’s sovereign will. When people were angry at God for her, she merely responded with, “God is good no matter what happens to us...we may never have another child, and the truth is, we don’t deserve children. We don’t deserve anything from God. But He has extended unbelievable grace to us in Jesus coming to die for us. Every breath He supplies is grace.” These words were spoken through tears, with a smile that showed through her brokenness, a sincere faith in the overpowering, radiant love of Jesus. That is faith. That is the kind of trust and belief in the goodness of God that makes the world turn their heads and shut their mouths." - Justin Anderson (Mainstay)
