six feet deep - broken tree lyrics
maybe the limbs of a broken tree will heal themselves in time
or maybe the limbs from that broken tree will petrify…
hard as stone.
as i peel back the layers i find things i never knew were there
and as i listen to my prayers i hear myself confused and scared.
this broken tree feels like it’s part of me somehow controlling
my destiny.
has the seed of a broken promise decided what i will be?
and i, left to myself can only hope to survive.
and i, left to myself can only slowly die.
how long will i drift? would i not know the difference?
have i weathered so long that i’ve been shaped by this ocean?
will the legacy live on in me? like father, like son?
i don’t believe that what i am is determined by what
precedes me.
and now i have to realize that the past is not my future
and in christ i’m a brand new creature.
and i, left to myself can only hope to survive.
and i, left to myself can only slowly die.
but given grace i know i can,
given grace i can learn to forgive.
in the face of all of this.
given grace i can truly live.
