Foundation by John Carlson
This song grew out of the very painful failure of a close friendship. Having said that I think the words speak for themselves so I will say no more on that. The point is that no matter how much pain we put each other through, however unintentional it may be, the One who created us all is always there to heal us if we stand on our faith and seek Him out. Interestingly enough, even though it grew out of separation, this song eventually became a wedding song for another couple whom I have become close friends with. That is how I have learned to recognize God’s hand in things, just when you think He has refilled your cup, he makes it overflow just a little.
The Lyrics
With our imperfect hearts so easily torn apart
We reach out for each other’s love from within these shells of dust
We see through fear clouded eyes and others hearts pay the price
It shakes us to our very souls foundations rocked to the core
(chorus)
We dance with each others souls as if we were in control
But each step has a price we pay with each others lives
Erecting walls against the pain our hearts grow darker every day
Only one can tear them down in whom the lost will be found
(chorus)
So in loneliness we dare to love with kindness and care
Imperfect hearts are all we have to judge the closeness we should share
Yet in His perfect hands the scars of foolishness mend
The careless hurt the we inflict my foundation will fix
Chorus
My Foundation is the one
Who spoke to creation and all was done
None can move Him and
None can shake me and
From His hand
None can take me away
