SALT WATER 03:58
The moment's here and then it's gone again, gone again Caught in my head till I find my heart again, Your heart again Salt Water Salt Water I've got a craving in my heart I've got a craving in my heart for You Take a breath it's all okay I've got a craving in my heart I've got a craving in my heart for You Take a breath it's all okay The tide rolls in my chest feels tight again The tension tightening The tide rolls out I feel at peace again Hands loosening Salt Water Salt Water I've got a craving in my heart I've got a craving in my heart for You Take a breath it's all okay I've got a craving in my heart I've got a craving in my heart for You Take a breath it's all okay I've got a craving in my heart I've got a craving in my heart for You Take a breath it's all okay I've got a craving in my heart I've got a craving in my heart for You Take a breath it's all okay

I was a brilliant son of man I knew that I was worth it and I didn't have to do it alone I surfed the warm waves through the sand Looking for my promised land or a place To call my home I combed the highways in the dark Through the spiders and the sharks Unaware of my destination Held on to circus fed beliefs on par with Common cold reliefs Well aware of my frustrations Yeah This is the story of our Nation This is the cry of my generation This is the glory of Creation This is the hope of regeneration Yeah A country built on sinking sand In desperate need of foundation Will never weather the storm, no way The price of life cannot be sold In dollar bills or coins of gold God please wake the USA God please wake the USA God please wake the USA This is the story of our Nation This is the cry of my generation This is the glory of Creation This is the hope of regeneration, yeah This is the story of our Nation This is the cry of my generation This is the glory of Creation This is the hope of regeneration Yeah

I don't have the right words to say all the things I could unravel if I would just open up my mouth Filling up the room is spinning Overtired and overwilling One thing seems to fall into the next Come Home Love Come Home Love Come Home Love Come Home Love In the middle of the night You are there In the middle of my heart You are here In the middle of my day You're so near In the middle of the night You are there In the middle of my heart You are here In the middle of my day You're so near Come Home Love Come Home Love And I can stop Yes I can stop my feet from running in the wrong direction Trying to put space between us None of that makes sense when I know You Come Home Love All is well Love Come Home Love All is well Love

You could come at any time But still I hold my breath For another morning For another sunrise It's the shape of the water The changing of the tide And it leads us to the side Of the One who made us The One who made us I've got my hands and my own feet And I know that it won't be long I've got my hands and my own feet And I know that it won't be long And so I wait for you to shine Like you were made for this time Like you were born for these days To be alive And we'll raise you up To be the best that you can I've got my hands and my own feet And I know that it won't be long I've got my hands and my own feet And I know that it won't be long

The river is running dry The circles are in the sky Of the questions that fill my mind They all carry the current of time So why, why oh why can't I So why, why oh why can't I The river is running dry, dry The promise is in the sky, sky When the levy is heavy with the rise And the riverbed will overflow with time So why, why oh why can't I Oh why, why oh why can't I When I'm lifting my eyes Covered in colors of plenty But I cover my eyes to blind to see I wanna know you more clearly Open up my hands lay down my pride So why, why oh why can't I Oh why, why oh why can't I When I'm lifting my eyes

My love it is so close So close to the End Cause I've read the book And I've watched the movie And I saw the way this will go It's not a song or dance It's your only chance to get off the train and on the road Cause when it's all said and done You will still have your one and only Heart beating for love So I climbed aboard and I found the Lord And I found that He found me first I love you God You are all I want When I give it all back to You

about

What does it mean to be in the in-between?

If you put your ear to the ground, you will hear people talking about liminal spaces - the strange and necessary time between the 'what was' and the 'next.'

Eugene Peterson, in his study on the Songs of Ascents referenced to 'between times' over 40 years ago when he wrote that "it is a time of danger, of expectation, of uncertainty, of excitement, of extraordinary aliveness."

THE GLORIOUS IN-BETWEEN is the third album from NC-based FYR FYTR. Primarily written and recorded by Chris & Jessie Miller, these are songs that span many years of life together.

Featuring songs from their own between times - in between seasons of serving and making, dating and marriage, love and loss, the birth of one child and the arrival of another, these are songs of the road - now collected in one album. We hope it gives language to your own in-between times.
