Can't Control

It all went sideways
The mast hit a wind it could not a break
A task it could not face
But I heard my mother say

"This hell will one day be dim
You'll look back oh and see a thread runs through
It always carried you - it joins the past to truth"

So when the emptiness comes
Be patient my dear
It's just making space for new life to appear

And you can't control the speed
You can't control the need
So please be gentle with the seed

But grace does not take the pain away
She sits by oh your side like a dove
She opens your lungs
She holds your breath in love

So when the emptiness comes
Be patient my dear
It's just making space for new life to appear

And you can't control the speed
You can't control the need
So please be gentle with the seed

Tend to it on your knees
Tend to it on your knees
And it'll rise up to meet your need
But you can't control the speed
You can't control the need
So please be gentle with the seed
