Sometimes the light is too bright
The sun is too bright
Our path is too bright
And we need a shadow
Sometimes, the sound is too loud
The height is too high
The walk is too long
And we need a place of rest
We need a shadow.
I'm casting shadows
As thin as breath
I'm shielding shallows in the stream of life
I'm shedding shadows of Trust and Rest
And I hope I may have you stay by me.
