More than what I see today...

I love it when I see great poetry in songs; this one particularly touched me.

"There's more that rises in the morning than the sun
More that shines in the night than just the moon
There's more than just the fire here that keeps me warm
In a shelter that is larger than this room

There's a loyalty that's deeper than mere sentiment
A music higher than the songs that I can sing
The stuff of earth competes for the allegience
I owe only to the giver of all things

So if I stand, let me stand on the promise that you will pull me through
And if I can't, let me fall on the grace that first brought me to you
If I sing, let me sing for the joy that has born in me these songs
But if I weep, let it be as a man who is longing for his home"
