Maybe I push when I meant to be still Maybe I take it all too personal Jesus, how to reconcile The joyful noise The ancient land The tug from some invisible hand The dying mother weaving bulrushes Along the Nile
Float her basket over the sea Here on a barren shore We'll be waiting for A tailwind to carry her orphan's cry Don't you worry child I wrote a lullaby
I try to settle, but I just pass through A rain dog, a gypsy A wandering Jew All those homes where not ours Then i slept one night in Abraham's field And dreamt there was no moon The night he died Counting stars Selah
Float her basket over the sea Here on a barren shore We'll be waiting for A tailwind to carry an orphan's cry Don't you worry child I wrote a lullaby
Building you a home Building you a home Building you a home We're Building you a home Selah
So float her basket over the sea Here on a barren shore We'll be waiting for A tailwind to carry an orphan's cry Don't you worry child I wrote a lullaby
Float her basket over the sea Here on a barren shore We'll be waiting for A tailwind to bring us your sweet cry Don't you worry child I gonna sing you a lullaby
