Oak Table

We're sitting together at the table
A simple round oak table
Stained with blessings
Chipped and worn with love
A simple round oak table

In the morning she'll be leaving
Excitement is mixed with grieving
Facing all the fears
For two or three years she'll be gone
We'll be together, we don't know when
Pray for protection, again and again
Pressing on through the tears
At least for two or three years

His aging body is waging war
He's losing ground, back and forth
Facing all the fears
For almost seven years of pain
They've checked the charts
They've done the math
Pray for healing
Prepare for death
Pressing on through the tears
For almost seven years

We're sitting together at the table
A simple round oak table
Stained with blessings
Chipped and worn with love
A simple round oak table

God is calling her far away
God is calling him home
For my dad and my daughter
The moment has come
He's holding her hand
The other arm around her shoulder
We know our Lord has a plan
It may be clearer when we're older
They're trying to say goodbye
In heaven we will know why

We're sitting together at the table
A simple round oak table
Stained with blessings
Chipped and worn with love
A simple round oak table
