Things you Can be Sure of

[Verse 1] Some folks say there's nothing real That truth is just a spinning wheel But I’ve seen mountains kiss the sky And heard a newborn's first small cry [Pre-Chorus] They say it’s all just points of view But I’ve felt love — and so have you [Chorus] There are things you can be sure of: Like the warmth of bread when it breaks in two The way a loyal dog runs back to you The hush of snow, the spark in spring A song that makes your spirit sing A mother’s tears, a child's wide grin — These are truths that live within [Verse 2] They’ll say that right and wrong are myths Just echoes in the analyst’s scripts But I’ve seen kindness save a life And courage cut through fear and strife [Pre-Chorus] You can't unfeel the good you've known Or doubt the seeds that you have sown [Chorus] There are things you can be sure of: Like hands that hold when you're in pain The smell of earth after gentle rain The way a fire draws us near The voice that calms what we most fear A truth well-spoken, clear and bright — That’s not opinion, that’s pure light [Bridge – spoken or sung low and slow] You can twist the facts, deny the flame But love and grief still know your name And every lie that clouds the air Still burns away when someone cares [Final Chorus – soaring, full harmony] There are things you can be sure of: Like the pull of home, the peace of grace The smile of time on an elder's face The golden light at close of day The need to help, to hope, to pray They'll say "there’s nothing you can prove" — But I’ve lived these truths, and so have you [Outro – gently fading] There are things... There are things... You can be sure of
