Mosaic (2:41) – bittersweet mid-tempo song with soothing guitars, mandolin, fiddle, and vocals. A song of hope that we might transform some of our brokenness into a mosaic...perhaps even a collective one.
Lyrics
Mosaic
Words & Music by Joy Zimmerman
Well, my friend, we live with the shattered
Time ago the song was complete
We were young, the canvas before us
Before tears followed our feet
My friend, I’ve studied the pieces
Wrestling, turning each one in my mind
Some sharp to touch, some edges are softened
Some too heavy to leave behind
How do we make our mosaic together?
How do we shape trial by fire?
How do we find our peace with the fragments
Ever-changing with the tide?
Well, my friend, the chasm is o’er us
Echoes sing when quiet the night
Let us whisper of simple and hopeful
To carry us into time
How do we make our mosaic together?
How do we shape trial by fire?
How do we find our peace with the fragments
Ever-changing with the tide?
Let us make our mosaic together
We can shape trial by fire
We will find peace with our fragments together
Ever-changing with the tide
Ever-changing with the tide
We are changing in the tide
