《Holy As A Day Is Spent》歌词

[00:00:00] Holy As A Day Is Spent - Carrie Newcomer

[00:00:01] Holy is the dish and drain

[00:00:05] The soap and sink and the cup and plate

[00:00:08] And the warm wool socks and the cold white tile

[00:00:14] Shower heads and good dry towels

[00:00:17] And frying eggs sound like psalms

[00:00:22] With bits of salt measured in my palm

[00:00:26] It's all a part of a sacrament

[00:00:31] As holy as a day is spent

[00:00:38] Holy is the busy street

[00:00:43] And cars that boom with passion's beat

[00:00:46] And the check out girl counting change

[00:00:51] And the hands that shook my hands today

[00:00:55] And hymns of geese fly overhead

[00:01:00] And spread their wings like their parents did

[00:01:04] Blessed be the dog that runs in her sleep

[00:01:08] To chase some wild and elusive thing

[00:01:17] Holy is the familiar room

[00:01:21] And quiet moments in the afternoon

[00:01:24] And folding sheets like folding hands

[00:01:29] To pray as only laundry can

[00:01:33] I'm letting go of all my fear

[00:01:38] Like autumn leaves made of earth and air

[00:01:42] For the summer came and the summer went

[00:01:47] As holy as a day is spent

[00:01:55] Holy is the place I stand

[00:01:59] To give whatever small good I can

[00:02:03] And the empty page and the open book

[00:02:08] Redemption everywhere I look

[00:02:12] Unknowingly we slow our pace

[00:02:16] In the shade of unexpected grace

[00:02:20] And with grateful smiles and sad lament

[00:02:25] As holy as a day is spent

[00:02:29] And morning light sings providence

[00:02:35] As holy as a day is spent
