| Fragile |
| Life is fragile Everybody breaks so easy Life is fragile No one is immune In the long run Everyone must take their turn In this lesson we don't wanna take But all have to learn And I'll stay here with you Knowing that Jesus is here To carry us through And all through the night I'll stay be your side Until the morning appears And sun and moon collide He'll carry us through Time betrays us And our minds they try to Enslave us But there remains none the less perfect hope that will lead us to rest Perfect Rest I don't know where to begin I've been thinking about you since This began Everyday, It's the same Such bitter sweet emotions Like tears in the ocean Prayers of praise then those Tears of rage I'm calling to you Lord Is this a testing of my faith? Still all I know is you're in control. Music & Lyric Phil joel |
| Phil Joel on Fragile: written after hearing from a friend of their terminal illness. every tear I shed seemed to bring with it a new emotion. Still i wrestle with how and why, and am learning to rest in God's sovereignty. |
