Where'd You Go?
2013 · Zack Smith
I’m going to put this day to bed
And then I’ll rise up once again
Before the sun comes creeping over
With every star as my witness
I’m going to put myself to rest
Promise aloud ne’er to forsake you
Yea, to embrace you
I will build a home on this land
Here I will raise a family
Upon a hand that’s holding, raising me
I sow seed across these fields but I
Can’t pour rain down from the sea
I’m waiting
Until my family arrives
I will be the sacrifice
They need to know a home awaits them
A broad green haven
My hands have felled trees and
Hewn logs to build up a mansion
For each one a price was paid
Am I alone, stacking up stones
God! I need grace to make this a home now
Where’d you go? Where’d you go?
I will build a home on this land
Here I will raise a family
Upon your hand that’s holding, raising me, oh
I sow seed across these fields but I
Can’t pour rain down on the sea
I’m waiting
Where’d you go? Where’d you go?
