Edge of the World

Maybe I'll have words
Maybe I'll have a song of praise
But for now I think
This silence is okay

All I know is that you sling me on your shoulder like a lamb
I hide my head inside your arms
Bury my tears in them
When I was caught up in despair
Oh how I wish I'd never gone there

Press my ear to the door
But I still can't hear a thing
Were you to speak,
Oh God, would I come

All I know is that you sling me on your shoulder like a lamb
I hide my head inside your arms
Bury my tears in them
When I was caught up in despair
Oh how I thought that you might leave me there

You set me down at the edge of the world
And we wait and watch the sky unfold
I've never felt a beauty run that deep
It somehow sympathized with me
You whisper to me things of old
And you say "take heart, I've overcome
the world"

All I know is that you sling me on your shoulder like a lamb
I hide my head inside your arms
Bury my tears in them
When I was caught up in despair
I couldn't see that you were always there

You set me down at the edge of the world
And we wait and watch the sky unfold
I've never felt a beauty run that deep
It somehow sympathized with me
You whisper to me things of old
And you say "take heart, I've overcome
the world"
