Did you see the invitation to have Nothing to prove There at the end of striving In the middle of something good When you finally see that you can’t pretend The dream of God is the dream of men Well meet me at the river, oh I’ve fashioned us a raft and oar We’re going […]
SARA GROVES-Your Reality
You, like a thermometer right outside I can see from the kitchen window What is real, what it’s really like You, when the mirrors stretch and wave When the image is dark and crazy and it’s all I can see Your reality is my good medicine Tell me who we are and who I […]
SARA GROVES-Signal
“Signal” lyrics SARA GROVES LYRICS “Signal” All the cliches about how fast kids grow are true I woke up this morning eye to eye with you The love songs and adages couldn’t explain the whole Of all you’re becoming, body and soul Your heart goes out I can hear your song Your signal is getting […]
SARA GROVES-I Feel The Love Between Us
Baby this isn’t like young love No, this is like an underground river Flowing over iron and iron Shaping all the takers and givers I feel the love between us We just walked into some history You can’t ignore a beautiful past Full of redemption and mystery Holding up the things that will last I […]
SARA GROVES-On Your Mark
Thought I could live without it Said I just didn’t want to Thought I could walk away That wasn’t true Days they turn into lifetimes Water it drips on a rock What could be stronger in time Than fears and thoughts On your mark set go On your mark set go You can go […]

“Native Tongue” lyrics SARA GROVES LYRICS “Native Tongue” I know what you’re saying it’s my native tongue Heard it as a child and it soothed me I know where we’re going like the river runs In its pathways I know what you’re saying I know what you’re saying Something really happened It was wild and […]
SARA GROVES-Enough
Late nights, long hours Questions are drawn like a thin red line No comfort left over No safe harbor in sight Really we don’t need much Just strength to believe There’s honey in the rock, There’s more than we see In these patches of joy These stretches of sorrow There’s enough for today There will […]
SARA GROVES-Floodplain
Some hearts are built on a floodplain Keeping one eye on the sky for rain You work for the ground that gets washed away When you live closer Closer to the life and the ebb and flow Closer to the edge of I don’t know Closer to that’s the way it goes Some hearts […]
SARA GROVES-Second Guess Girl
Is it time for a speech or for silence Are you calling for peace or defiance Is this darkening counsel or wisdom Are we all perpetrators or victims? Is this childlike simple rote history Is it complex deciphering mystery Is this blessing or ill gotten wealth Am I speaking for God or myself? It’s a […]
