Our Stone Wall: The Backstory

*Verse 1*

We stacked our days
Like weathered stones
Rough-cut truths
And broken edges shown
Hands got tired
Still we carried on
Laid each promise down
’Til the daylight felt strong

*Chorus*

Like a stone wall, standing in the rain
Every scuff a story, every crack a name
We don’t back down
We don’t walk away
This covenant holds
Like a stone wall in the gale

*Verse 2*

Winter came
With its howling doubt
Cold words thrown
Tried to wear us out
But we leaned close
Shoulder into storm
You guarded my heart
I kept your heart warm

*Chorus*

Like a stone wall, standing in the rain
Every scuff a story, every crack a name
We don’t back down
We don’t walk away
This covenant holds
Like a stone wall in the gale

*Bridge*

Mercy in the mortar
Grace in the seams
We fail, forgive
And fit back again
If the ground shakes
And the sky turns red
We’ll still be here
Stacked in love till death (oh yeah)

*Chorus*

Like a stone wall, standing in the rain
Every scuff a story, every crack a name
We don’t back down
We don’t walk away
This covenant holds
Like a stone wall in the gale
