Beside the Barn
by Frances Drost

Album: Inside Things

It was early in October
On our little farm in Gardners
When we lost our little brother
In the pond beside the barn

Every time I see the water
It's so easy to remember
How it felt to lose a brother
In the pond beside the barn

AND THOUGH I'M NOT THERE ANYMORE
AND THEY SAY HOME IS WHERE YOUR HEART IS
MY HEART COULD LIVE MOST ANYWHERE
STILL MY HEART IS WHERE THAT HOME WAS

When I hear you talk of blue skies
When I hear you tell of colored leaves
I can see that little farm now
And the pond beside the barn

And though I've lived in other places
Even they could not erase this
So I guess you'd say my heart lives
Near the pond beside the barn

Though I know the land is different now
And the road you take is changed somehow
I know I'd find it just by looking out
For the pond beside the barn

2 Corinthians 1:3-4: "All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. God is our merciful Father and the source of all comfort. He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When they are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort God has given us."
