Everything Changes

The phrase ‘everything changes’ has been floating through my brain lately. At first, I thought it was because of a book that’s been sitting on my nightstand for awhile called “Everything Must Change.” But I actually think it is because it seems like everything is changing. Everything might be a bit melodramatic, but not really…

And once again, Sara Groves has come to the rescue with the perfect lyrics that express my thoughts (for real, how does she do it?):

Sometimes it's hard to tell what to keep and what to kill
What of this makes us who we are?
All that we love the most, all that we cannot let go
How much of change can we survive?

I'm here to re-write this tragedy
One line at a time
Hold on, I'm changing all the scenery
It's okay we'll be fine
Cause we know how this ends
We know there's a better story

There's a better story
Of true love, of true grace
There's the hope of glory
And our first chance to be truly brave
It's the place we're going
When we can't stay where we are
