Listen to that silence now Front door opens, morning air Broken branches everywhere But these old walls still standing strong And somehow, we carried on Windows cracked but hearts intact A little shaken, that’s a fact But the storm rolled by and spared this place Left us breathing in its wake Neighbors waving down the road Helping lift each other’s load Coffee brewing, children laugh Little things we still can have Greatfull for the light Greatfull for this day For the calm after the wind When the fear has blown away We’re still here That’s enough to know Sometimes mercy sounds like A soft breeze blowing slow Still alive Still standing Family still together
