Lyrics

Silence slips between us
Solitude complete
Stillness clear and close as heaven's door
The earth beats out its rhythms
In slow and perfect time
Counterpointed harmonies
Life melodies entwined
And we fight the battle here
Where there's time to fall in step
The secrets are still known here
But the secret's never kept
Wild places
Someplace we can see the Father's hand
Wild places
Someplace we can be alone with You
We need a promised land
Maybe we'll be wounded in the healing
It's to be broken to be sure
Can we embrace this strange awakening together?
There's wisdom carved into creation
The old relationships defined
As forbidding as Her truth may be
We'll learn her ways with time
We'll learn to take it as it comes
We can't change faster than we can
Already we're a long way
From the children we began
Wild places
Someplace we can see the Father's hand
Wild places
Someplace we can be alone with You
We need a promised land
Wood smoke rising
Faces alive in the firelight
Forsaking the road
Making it home to be there tonight
The young making good
What they found in the wood
What they learned on the land
Putting dreams back together
Talking it through
Reaching out for the hand
And there's a moment caught suspended
Communion born between our eyes
Our vision clears
Its golden flight ascending
And we have seen what we have come for
And we will someday see again
But we've climbed into the mountains
So we must climb back down to the land
But we'll take it as it is
Crazy with love and disbelief
At the magic of Your morning
The wilderness, the peace of
Wild places
Someplace we can touch the Father's hand
Wild places
Someplace we can be alone with You
We need a promised land
