Home Enough (for Now)

I looked out on the valley from the cross
Vantage point for everything I've lost
My family has extended
Sunday morn we're singing out
This body breathes, there's land to plow
I guess that this is home enough
for now
I feel content alone here in my car
But wonder if someone could share this heart
Perhaps You know and see her
It's already planned out
A present-written future vow
I guess that this is home enough
for now
I guess that this is home enough for now
And some days I don't mind it if You stay
Up there till we're grafted into place
But days like these, my Jesus, I confess
I'd take the knife to feel the tension less
To never be alone or be at rest
From this strange earth...
I'm a stranger...
But here atop this quiet ridge, I see
Far enough to know You're good to me
Go on and make me desolate
Till You're all I'm not without
Oh God, did I pray that out loud?
I guess that this is home enough for now
I guess that this is home enough...

Mother's Day

Mama, are you singing now?
Abby sent a book to me on heaven
I always brought those plastic flowers
And you'd feign that same surprise
Are you with your mother now?
She's not been around since '97
Cried for both of you for hours
Was I still three in your eyes?
You loved, you loved, you loved, you loved
You loved, you loved, you loved me
Like no one has, like no one will
Like no one does, you loved me
I wish I'd spoke
Not let you sleep
If I could tell you one thing
It's that this seed
You planted deep
Has not just grown for nothing
(Selah)
Dad and I are driving west
Gonna show him around California
What you kept beneath your chest
We're gonna carry that fire for ya
