Place They Call Home

For as long as I remember

Been staring at the sky

Looking into the Father

A billion twinkles in His eye

I listen to Him whisper

A sweet song through the pines

Been a witness of His wonders

Since the dawn of time

I was made to be walked on

But I'll stand my ground

To wandering souls that lost their way

Know you're always found

I was made to be walked on

So go where you're gonna get to

I'll always be around, I'm here for you

I'm rivers, rocks, and mountains

I've got no flesh and bone

I ain't ashamed to claim the name

Of footstool to His Throne

From lonesome plains to thundering rain

A peaceful spirit roams

And I'm a mother to His children

A place that they call home

I was made to be walked on

But I'll stand my ground

To wandering souls that lost their way

Know you're always found

I was made to be walked on

So go where you're gonna get to

I'll always be around, I'm here for you

From falling trees to colonies

Your work is never done

Forged from dust and turning rust

To towers in the sun

But pride and rage and battles waged

On wars never won

You try to break my heart in two

But I'm for everyone

I was made to be walked on

But I'll stand my ground

To wandering souls that lost their way

Know you're always found

I was made to be walked on

So go where you're gonna get to

I'll always be around, I'm here for you

I wasn't made to be fought on

If that's what you're gonna do

'Til I'm not around, I'm here for you
