Song and Silence

Listen to the track:

Song and Silence

A bittersweet melody, hope is love.

 

Verse 1
Sorrow sat beside me long
Quiet as an evening stone
I turned away but felt her near
Like sea mist breathing cold and clear
Yet in that hush I raised my voice
As if my own heart had a choice

Chorus
Song and silence, walk with me
By the church and by the sea
Through the dark and through the foam
Love will lead the spirit home
After grief the light can start
Hope still sings within the heart

Verse 2
Sweet the fields in light of May
Sweet the lark at break of day
I sang beneath the open sky
Knowing now that songs need not die
Rain may fall and night may come
Still the morning finds the sun

Chorus
Song and silence, walk with me
By the church and by the sea
Through the dark and through the foam
Love will lead the spirit home
After grief the light can start
Hope still sings within the heart

Bridge
Lift the bow and strike the string
Let the brighter morning sing
What was burden, what was pain
Turns to living song again

Final Chorus
Song and silence, walk with me
By the church and by the sea
Through the dark and through the foam
Love will lead the spirit home
After grief the light can start
Hope still sings within the heart
