What is a Sanctuary? | Lilah Anders (9)

The snowy day of winter lays

Before the spring and fall

And summer showers last for hours

Causing pouring waterfalls

Rivers flow and people know that all will be alright

That’s what a sanctuary is, everything happy and bright


A hand to hold, a face to know

A family to sit beside

Reasons to smile, to stay for a while

No motivation to hide

Fires glow and people know they’re safe from the outside storm

That’s what a sanctuary is, everything lovely and warm


A roof above your head to protect

From rain and snow and hail

Kind Samaritans on the road you will meet

To show you love while you’re broken and frail

Hearts will grow and people know that they’ve got a haven to stay

That’s what a sanctuary is, a sheltering home for the day


Yet again lay snowy days

Before the spring, summer, fall

With summer showers that last for hours

And trickle into waterfalls

Rivers flow and people know that all will indeed be alright

That’s what my sanctuary is, everything happy and bright


Fires glow and people know they’re safe from the outside storm

That’s what my sanctuary is, everything lovely and warm


Hearts will grow and people know that they’ve got a haven to stay

That’s what my sanctuary is, a sheltering home for the day


That’s what my sanctuary is
