More Than We Know

Who knew this day would find me?
Consuming the past behind me
Insisting my heart will define me
No matter that I show

The work of my hands and the hours
Spent growing the sand into towers
Calling your sea to devour
More than you know

Gone are the days that I carried
A grief that alone I had married
To everything held and then buried
Deep in my soul

For now you speak far beyond reason
A bridge with a foot in each season
Extending a hope I believe in
More than you know

What kept me here and standing free?
What part of you saw this in me
Oh, how long until I see?

This light goes on forever
Carrying time like it’s treasure
By blood and above us like weather
Further than we’ll go

For all of the breath that leaves us
The ghosts that arrive to deceive us
I hold to the grace that believes for us
More than we know

More than we know more than we know
