SONG

LYRICS

1.
This is a song for the caretakers
Those who’ve invested their love
For the mothers and brothers, aunts
Uncles and fathers and
Family not made by blood
You’ve held back the fighters
And pulled the all nighters
And made the load lighter for us
You’ve held shaking hands and
Helped us make a plan when
Our worlds were imploding on us

And your love will undoubtedly cause you pain
But your work will never be in vain

2.
This is a song for the patient ones
Those who never gave up
You led us to Jesus
And begged Him to reach us
Before all our chances are up
When your love had to follow us
Into dark places and Grieve for the innocence lost
We watched as you fought to
Forgive and release us
To pick up our own cross

And your love has undoubtedly caused you pain
But your work has never been in vain

3.
Your love has made us so strong and stable
And now we’re grateful that we have been able
To forward the lessons
You poured in our hearts
For the next generation ours
We won some we lost some
And mourned every loss while the
Father held onto our hearts
We grieved what felt wasted
But the anguish we tasted
Drew us further into His heart
And He us loving us out of the dark

And His Love undoubtedly caused Him pain
But His Word will never be in vain

And His Love undoubtedly caused Him pain
But His Word will most certainly not be in vain

Oh He is loving us though we’ve been stained
And He is coming, our hearts to reclaim.
