[19]The Field

[Verse] A stone in the dust where Rachel fell Her cries hung heavy like a broken bell The earth drank tears in a sorrowed swell A field remembers A field can tell [Chorus] This field has seen This field has heard It keeps the whispers It holds the word Time may pass but the roots endure This field This field It holds the word [Verse 2] The oil poured down on a shepherd's brow A boy became a king somehow Among the sheep Beneath the bough A field remembers then Remembers now [Prechorus] The wind hums low The trees lean near A song of ages only they can hear [Chorus] This field has seen This field has heard It keeps the whispers It holds the word Time may pass but the roots endure This field This field It holds the word [Bridge] Stars ignited above the hill An angel's voice The night stood still Shepherds trembling Hearts to fill The field bore witness to God's will
