Lyrics:

FIELDS-------
In the smoky light
And in the rain
Working through the night
And through the haze

You lay it down each day
With heavy eyes
Just to wake again
Just as tired

So may every morning find the mercy new
And light enough to shine upon the fallow fields

I can see your heart
Beneath the dirt
You put your weary hands
Into the work

A needle and a thread
To mend the seams
A heartbeat and a breath
To plant the seed

So may every morning find the mercy new
And light enough to shine upon the fallow fields
So may every blossom break into the day
Up from underneath the gravel and the clay

Lift your eyes and see
Above the leaves
Above the war torn dreams
I am here

So put your hand in mine
You’re not alone
I’ll be by your side
Through it all

So may every morning find the mercy new
And light enough to shine upon the fallow fields
So may every blossom break into the day
Up from underneath the gravel and the clay

So we work the ground
And decades pass
Until the first gives way
Unto the last

For gardens in the spring
Miles of green
To see the seasons healed
The years redeemed

And we will walk these hills
Like before
And what was sown in tears
We’ll reap with joy

WITHIN THESE WALLS-------
I’ve been thinking about you
So beautiful and lovely
I wish you could see it all the way I do
So pure and true

And I’ve seen you in the sun
Shining warm upon your skin
Young feet wandering in the harbor there
And every summer since

And your song is alive
It’s filling all the empty
Eternity within these walls
Within your precious heart

And the days can be cruel
I know the hours take a toll
I know it’s hard to open up the doors
And let me see inside

But the dark is alright
I’m not bothered by the quiet
And a secret is a welcome thing
My arms are open wide

BETWEEN THE DAYS-------
See the light of the stars
Hear the sound of the unseen
In the empty, fall
In the silence, listen

May it lift your heart
And move your feet to run again
May you wander far
You will not be lost within

And you’ll see the light
Though the darkness seems so strong
In the deepest night
Let love lead you home

Come and rest your head
Here time is an ocean
There is peace and grace
Mercies born between the days

And you’ll see the light
Though the darkness seems so strong
In the deepest night
Let love lead you home

Oh it’s never far
There is nothing you should fear at all
Though the way is hard
I will never never leave you alone
