Belong

by Chris Rice

Fading memories ignored

I crawled across the forest floor

Pool reflects an orphan child

Dirty, lost, alone and wild

Fatherless and nameless still

Fallen heart and broken

Will there ever be a place where I belong?

I cower 'neath the monster trees

And try to stand on tired feet

But gravity knocks me to the ground

Where I give up, and tears roll down

I claw the dust and beg the end

Curse the day that I began

To hope there'd be a place where I belong

I hear a sound I recognize

You lift my chin and seek my eyes

Song of love You sing to me

I ache to sing it back to Thee

"Father Love prepares a place

And Brother Jesus leads the way

Follow to the place where you belong!"

How did I miss this wondrous song?

The forest sang it all along

"River rinses all your shame

Father offers you His name

Father Love prepares a home

Brother Jesus leads you on

Follow to the place where you belong!"

"Father Love prepares a place

Brother Jesus leads the way

Follow to the place where you belong

Follow to the place where you belong!"

Chris' lyrics as often as not turn me into a puddle on the floor...I and many others sure do miss him. I was asked some years back to sing "Welcome To Our World" at Christmas at church. Quickly I realized I would have to get someone to duet with on the song. I couldn't, and can't, sing it all the way through without cracking. Finest Christmas song ever written. And FWIW it makes a lovely male/female split duet...

This is his best song ever. I talked to him a few weeks ago and unfortunately we shouldn't expect any new music. :(

One of Chris Rice's greatest songs! It's so poetic! The way he holds out the word "will" into the next line is genius! I love this song!!!!!!!!
