Redbud
There are times in life
I have found myself
Staring at the sky
And there are times in life
I have felt the rain
Just falling in my eye
Where the earth is dry and barren
Where the heart is cold and hollow
The redbud comes in bloom
And the dogwood soon will follow
All I need is here with me
All the faces I can see
Of the places one could be
All I need is here with me
There are times in life
I have found myself
Somewhere I did not expect
And there are times in life
I have found myself
Just staring at my regret
You can wrap yourself in sorrow
You can dwell on all that could be
Or you can hold on for tomorrow
God gives grace abundantly
All I need is here with me
All the faces I can see
Of the places one could be
All I need is here with me
All I need is here with me
All the faces I can see
Of the places one could be
All I need is here
All I need is here
All I need is here with me
There are times in life
I have found myself
Staring at the sky
And there are times in life
I have felt the rain
Just falling in my eye
Where the earth is dry and barren
Where the heart is cold and hollow
The redbud comes in bloom
And the dogwood soon will follow
All I need is here with me
All the faces I can see
Of the places one could be
All I need is here with me
There are times in life
I have found myself
Somewhere I did not expect
And there are times in life
I have found myself
Just staring at my regret
You can wrap yourself in sorrow
You can dwell on all that could be
Or you can hold on for tomorrow
God gives grace abundantly
All I need is here with me
All the faces I can see
Of the places one could be
All I need is here with me
All I need is here with me
All the faces I can see
Of the places one could be
All I need is here
All I need is here
All I need is here with me
Song Notes
This song has been one of my favorites from the day it was written - or should I say found - they all come from somewhere inside. I rarely know when one will come along. They surprise me. It's like, hello. The chorus is meaningful to me. I mean they are all meaningful to me, but this chorus impacts me in a different way - only four lines and the longest word has only six letters, but it's powerful.
