SEA GLASS
© Bev Praver 2020
CHORUSI am weathered, I am worn, like the sea glass on the shore
Tossed there by the tides, where the waves have gone before
I will rest upon the rocks, until my strength it is restored
Then I’ll ride upon the next wave to the sea
1. My sharp edges will be smooth, like sea glass I will age
The currents of my life will turn each and every page
Some won’t look within me, they’ll see only broken glass
And they’ll miss the softened edges of my soul
CHORUS
2. If they look beneath the surface, through the colors they will find
The things that made me what I am, the story will unwind
They will see the love and laughter, they will see the loss and tears
They will see that I have made it through the storm.
CHORUS
3. Someday someone will find me, as I rest upon the sand
They’ll pick me up and marvel as they hold me in their hand
They’ll see the things that shaped me and embrace me as I am
And they’ll treasure me for who I have become.
CHORUS
