BARREN LAND
The last few months I didn't feel
things were going right
The joy I'd had was missing
I felt I had lost sight
It's never easy moving on
but I'm being called away
The fire needs rekindling
but at some other place
I'll be praying constantly
for the friends I've left behind
our paths will cross again someday
I need time to unwind
The Lord works in mysterious ways
but I'll never understand
How rich this soil once was
and now it's barren land
