Sixpence None The Richer – Letras de The Ground You Shook

The Ground You Shook
Music & Lyrics by : Matt Slocum
feat. Emmylou Harris

I never knew you but you seemed to be, to me, a great man 
wise as a serpent and gentle as a hillside white lamb 
we heard your voice 
we saw your choice 
it's written on us 

I wish I'd know you and learned the way to walk the narrow path 
but I am grateful that you left your words to follow like a map 
within the dark land you gave us a lamp 
by which we might see 

we heard your voice 
we saw your choice 
it's written on us 

and we walk the ground that you shook 
we read the words in your book 
and learn how to break our own ground 
all the lambs will roar beautiful sounds
