Safe
Sierra Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Like pennies in a wishing well
I try, but I can never tell
Where this winding road of life
Will lead tomorrow
But in between the how and why
The questions of the days gone by
One thing brings me peace of mind
It's knowing come what may that I am

Safe
With Your arms around me
Since the day Love found me I am
Safe
I know my hope's in Heaven
And whatever happens I am safe

There's trouble everywhere I turn
No end to lessons to be learned
And it scares me won'drin'
What's around the corner
But You've told me to remember this
You're there for me and know what's best




I shouldn't worry about all the rest
Just trust in You and not forget I'm
