Song language: English
The Road, The Rocks, and The Weeds |
| Come down from the stars, show your human scars |
| Tell me what it’s like to believe |
| Through my Christ haunted thoughts that the losses you bought |
| Are the nights that you peopled with your dreams |
| Well, I’ve got no answers for heartbreaks or cancers |
| But a Savior who suffers them with me |
| Singing goodbye, Olympus, the heart of my Maker |
| Is spread out on the road, the rocks, and the weeds |
| Come down from your mountain, your high-rise apartment |
| And tell me of the God you know who bleeds |
| And what to tell my daughter when she asks so many questions |
| And I fail to fill her heaviness with peace |
| When I’ve got no answers for hurt knees or cancers |
| But a Savior who suffers them with me |
| Singing goodbye, Olympus, the heart of my Maker |
| Is spread out on the road, the rocks, and the weeds |
| And Aphrodite would not weep, nor Zeus would suffer for the weak |
| But have you come to stand inside my pain? |
| And all the things I’ve begged you for, eternity and evermore |
| Are hidden with me here beneath the rain |
| The rain |
| So shall I plant sequoias and revel in the soil |
| Of a crop I know I’ll never live to reap? |
| Then sow my body to my Maker, and my heart unto my savior |
| And spread me on the road, the rocks, and the weeds |
| Spread me on the road |
