Hope & Sorrow Songtext
von Wilder Adkins

Your water moves, it ebbs and flows
It burns like fire in my soul
It shakes in ways I can′t control
And can't even explain

The love of God is deep and wide
The heart of God - beauty defined
The love of man′s a fickle tide
Why do you love us so?

Oh, my word
How bittersweet this life
With hope and sorrow
Intertwined


I wish I knew my father well
Maybe one day we'll sit a spell
Stare deep into that holy well
Of eyes so blue and gray

Your demons are the same as mine.
And in choosing words you take your time
You are a poem that doesn't rhyme
It is beautiful that way

My brother is a lonesome man
On whom the shadows did descend
But I will be your Samaritan
Oh I would walk through fire for you

The sky may fall, the earth may quake
The rafters and the walls may shake
But it′s the little things which separate
A brother from his own
