Deepwood Drive



Deepwood Drive

You went back home when you felt alone
Taking life lost love, both gathered and borne
The woods behind the house did beckon
You crafted new worlds, a home house to live in

A place alone only where you can return to
The woods give God thanks, their song is to love you
Remember the light that peak shine in the dark
As you herald the morning with song of the lark

The virgin stands watchful, casts peaceful wide eye
She walks with you now and she will till you die
Chemo is wandering tails and new paths
And the virgin will guide him to light from the dark

Give yourself time and cry if you will
Knock on our door; let your heart now be still
Your life is full motion of which you are part
Prepare the way forward, let go, now take heart

God laugh God cry God push forward to live
 let go of your wealth, time now receive give
with others you journey on this Emmaus road
like the paths woods at evening, they call you to home
