Wash Away Stone

When I wake up in the morning
And I open my eyes
I remember to be grateful
For the bright blue skies
And I wonder what I’m here for
Give me meaning, I pray
For the breath in this body
I’ve been given today
CHORUS:
And I listen to the wind
As she whispers low
I am always here
You are not alone
Hold firmly to your power
You are blood and bone
Water and a gale
Will wash away stone
Unsteady on my feet
As I rise from my bed
I need a song to quiet
All the noise in my head
Memories of heartache
Unresolved from the past
I’m ready to release them
From my spirit at last
Chorus
May my heart be strengthened
My purpose be clear
May I always remember
The path that led here
Children of ancients
Seeds of the soil
Born of resistance
Beauty and toil
Chorus
