Time Is Our Safe Place

Lyrics

[Verse 1] The happiness that lives inside your voice, Those brown eyes piercing right through my soul. A horse, a picnic, laughter in the air, Somewhere along the way I lost control— I gave my heart, I made my choice. [Chorus] Through every storm we held on tight, Leaning on grace to guide us right. From sorrow's edge to morning light, Terrie Lee, you're still my home, The only love I've ever known. [Verse 2] We buried grief and grew so close instead, On your birthday came our daughter's first soft cry. A dusty desert town the Lord had called, Where children, cats, and pups all multiplied— Old Taffy stealing loaves of bread. [Chorus] Through every storm we held on tight, Leaning on grace to guide us right. From sorrow's edge to morning light, Terrie Lee, you're still my home, The only love I've ever known. [Bridge] When the fight came knocking at our door, We knelt and trusted even more. Learning by doing, doing to learn, Every page, another turn. [Verse 3] Four little hearts, the shows, the sports, the fields, The lambs, the goats, the fevers in the night. Now they are grown and married, gone and blessed, And grandkids fill the room with Christmas light— Your violin, the joy it yields. [Chorus] Through every storm we held on tight, Leaning on grace to guide us right. From sorrow's edge to morning light, Terrie Lee, you're still my home, The only love I've ever known. [Outro] Time is our safe and quiet shore, Holding your hand forevermore— Terrie Lee, I love you more.
