Written in the Ground (Shorts)

[Verse] Out past the fence where the tall grass bends Stones lean under borrowed names Whole lives held in a line or two Born, lived, gone — wind and rain One pair still stops me every time Not for what they built or claimed Just the way they walked it out When no one said their names [Chorus] It’s written in the ground, not the sky Not loud enough to draw a crowd But it held when the years rolled by And it’s still holding now Not what they raised or left behind Just a faith that stayed unbound Passed hand to hand, quiet and slow Written in the ground [Outro] I stand here now with my children close Trusting what was written Will still be found
