I once knew your father well
Am F C
He fought tears as he spoke of your mother's health
Am F C
I guess a part of him just couldn’t return
Am F C F C G
Forgiveness is a lesson he cursed you to learn
Am F C
As your guardian I was instructed well
Am F C G
To make sense of God’s love in these fires of hell
Am F C
No I don’t expect you to understand
Am F C
Just to live what little life your broken heart can
Chorus:
F Am
Maybe your light is a seed
G
And the darkness the dirt
F Am
In spite of the uneven odds
G
Beauty lifts from the earth
F C F C
From the earth
Am F C
From the earth
Am F C G
As the years move on these questions take shape
Am F C
Are you getting stronger or is time shifting weight?
Am F C
No one expects you to understand
Am F C
Just to live what little life your mended heart can
Am G
You’ll always remember the moment God took her away
F Am Dm G
For the weight of the world was placed on your shoulders that day
Chorus:
(or you can do the chords to the first chorus)

And the darkness the dirt
C
In spite of the uneven odds
G
Beauty lifts from the earth
F C G C G
From the earth
F C F C Am F C
Am C
You’re much too young now
So I write these words down,
Am F C
“Darkness exists to make light truly count.”
