Solid Ground

A good Christian raising A family foundation Mom and dad who taught us Right from wrong

Even through the hard times We stayed close together That's the solid ground That made me strong

But there were places that I had to go And things I had to find I was looking for the answers To the questions in my mind But all of the answers would be found On solid ground

For a while I wandered aimlessly And couldn't see the way I had to find out On my own

That the things that I was looking for Were things I left behind Sometimes you never miss it Till it's gone

Then a beacon from a lighthouse Led me safely to the shore And I didn't have to worry Or be troubled anymore I was finally coming back around On solid ground

The truths I learned When I was young Have stood the test of time All the rest have slowly washed away

I try to teach my children The best way I know how And hope that they're On solid ground to stay

And the lessons I was taught Keep on ringing in my ears Simple words of wisdom I'll remember through the years

Yes, now my feet are planted sound On solid ground Yes, now my feet are finally planted sound On solid ground
