There is summer in the sadness
In the wistful longing
It is not absent love
But loss of some belonging
And I tried to get over
What I could not seem to find
But I had not lost someone
I had only lost my mind
To some strange December
I found in village true
I thought I was saying goodbye
But there is an eternal You
That shines in every darkness
Like a star in the night
God is good and gracious
And He said Let There Be Light
And somehow I know the truth
That issues from his Word
Jesus is the strength
I found in me, I heard
The silence that he uttered
Deep into my soul
Now I am the shore
As the waves, they roll and roll
But they cannot crash the landing
Where once I did abide
I have found a peace
Somewhere deep inside
And it cannot be moved
It cannot be stirred
It landed on the branch
Like a holy bird
