I hear old folks say

They know God will make a way

That His love

Comes from heaven above

That He offers peace

The heart won’t release

That every journey

Is meant for the soul only

That their dreams

Make them burst at the seams

That life is better

Cause they embrace it to the letter

That God gave them a home

Where their souls can roam

That God removed all doubt

He’ll work things out

That He changed their name

Then removed their shame

That blessings were granted

As they watered the seeds they planted

That God’s power

Spreads hour after hour

And that God gave them more

Than they could ask for

I hear old folks say

They have a treasure

They cherish beyond measure

They know what to ignore

As God fills them to the core

That they do a victory dance

Whenever they get a chance

That they hold hands

Right where love stands

That they changed their view

After seeing what God can do

That they get stronger

As their days get longer

That their purpose is clear

So, they move without fear

That faith is the key

To what’s meant to be

That come what may

God will make a way

Is what old folks say
