song for mom - steve camp lyrics

beneath the strong exterior, the child cries
for you see she’s lost her companion in the night
and she feels the obligation to be two in one
to be a mother to soothe a broken heart
and a father to train her sons

ruthie, let some of that goodness fall
upon your number two boy
and may i never cease from learning
there’s a fire within, keep it burning
and by the sweat of my brow
keep me working for the prize
oh, that lies beyond the open door
i must walk inside

age brings forth a wisdom
like that of a fine machine
it distinguishes between the evil and good
that understands the in*between
some men search for silver and gold
others after god’s own heart
they’ll find a love of their maker
they’re givers, not takers
with a courage it takes to stand out

i say, ruthie, let some of that wisdom fall
upon your number two boy
and may i never cease from learning
there’s a fire within, keep it burning
and by the sweat of my brow
keep me working for the prize
oh, that lies beyond the open door
i must walk inside
what could become of all the children
if they could have what i’ve had with you
oh, their faith it could have move mountains
and out of their souls would spring up fountains
and that’s exactly what the good lord
intended them to do
well, just think of it, a faith on faith
and a love on love it could be
oh, just think of it
no more darkness, there’ll be peace
you don’t need to be blind, to his vision
if you open your eyes, you can see
that’s the way it’s supposed to be
it’s supposed to be

if you’re sailing on rocky water
her anchor holds under the changing tide
and she finds her strength
in the power of the lord
and has his wisdom as her guide
some men fly as eagles free
others as sparrows in a crowded sky
well, i myself was falling all too fast
but with the touch of her life, i can fly

i say, ruthie, let me pass on some of the life
that has become a part of mine
and because of it all, keep me learning
there’s a fire within, keep it burning
and by the sweat of my brow
keep me working for the prize
oh, that lies beyond the open door
i must walk inside, i must walk inside

- steve camp lyrics
