If I should fade Before your eyes Do not let sorrow Name the sky I leave no answer Cut in stone Only a kindness I was shown Day had its thorns Night had its fire Dust and wonder Walked together Something deeper Than our fear Stayed with us Do not be afraid I have known love More than the earth And the stars above All that was torn Still belongs Love was the thread All along We are a breath We are a wave Nothing is lost That love once gave Grief is a river Joy is a flame Both have a place Both have a name Hands that were empty Learned to receive Hearts that were broken Still could believe Something unseen Carried us through Nearer than breath When fear comes close And speaks too loud Open the window Of your heart Welcome the day As it arrives Love is the door Through which it shines Do not be afraid I have known love More than the earth And the stars above All that was torn Still belongs Love was the thread All along If I should fade Call it no end Love will be there Will be there again Again
