Song For My Sons

Sara Groves · Tell Me What You Know [2007]

This is a song for my sons for when they understand it

You know how life is full you know we couldn't plan it

your dad and I prayed for strength and understanding

for things we couldn't see or comprehend



This is a song for you, to carry in your pocket

take all our love with you in all the paths you walk in

I can't say your life will always go like it should

but I can say that God is always good



and when the cold wind blows like I know it will

and when you feel alone like I know you will

and when the cold wind blows like we know it will



Don't let your love grow

Don't let your love grow

Don't let your love grow cold



This is a song for my sons for when they understand it

You know how life is full you know we couldn't plan it

your dad and I prayed for strength and understanding

for things we couldn't see or comprehend



This is a song from my heart a small refrain to hold you

for times when we're apart and I cannot console you

Be honest with yourself and don't forget to pray

and read your bible everyday



and when the cold wind blows like I know it will

and when you feel alone like I know you will

and when the cold wind blows like I know it will



Don't let your love grow

Don't let your love grow

Don't let your love grow cold
