golden plan

you drift in, a shadow
you walk out a man
learning hard lessons
in His golden plan
you lay it all down
with the hurt that it brings
you're telling your truth
in the lyrics you sing

you drifted in, a shadow
you walked out a man

talking to saguaro

here tall in the sand

blown like the sage

wet from the rain

but when it's all over

a strong man remains
