Splinters

Self sent a twister

A tearin' after me

Gonna bust my house to splinters yes

An' take all that's dear to me



You say you saw it comin' yeah

But still you did not flee

I was too weak i couldn't move

Held by growth of a tree



An' yes i fell upon that rock

I did not die jus' badly broken

An' in time my healin' it will come yeah

By the words that he has spoken

I fell upon that rock



Who is it now that loves you

Straight in the front door

An' crooked out the back yeah

What is it now you're a slave to

On your knees out in your shack



I fell upon that rock yeah

He's beyond the shadow

Of your doubt an' mine

He's no man's opinion

He is truth divine



Self sent a twister

A tearin' after me

Done bust my house to splinters yeah

An' took all that's dear to me



Who is it now that loves you

Straight in the front door

An' crooked out the back yeah

What is it now that you pray to

As your world begins to crack



I fell upon that rock yeah

He's beyond the shadow

Of your doubt an' mine

He's no man's opinion

He is truth divine



An' yes i fell upon that rock

I did not die jus' badly broken

An' in time my healin' came yeah

By the words that he had spoken
