See the book up high on the shelf
Tippy tip toe to reach
Open it up and peer inside
What oh what will it teach
The sheets have a feel all their own
The paper is fine beneath
Turning each page moves the story along
What will this story bequeath
Turn the page
Tell the story
You know the author
He’s safe
Turn the page
Tell the story
You know the author
He’s safe
The story is winding, the arc awry
How can I know what comes next?
Keep turning the page hoping for resolution
The answer is all in the text
Like walking in darkness the pages continue
Turning and turn discontent
I must know the reason for all this confusion
Lord make it all make sense
Turn the page
Tell the story
You know the author
He’s safe
Turn the page
Tell the story
You know the author
He’s safe
He’s writing a story and this is a chapter
One we may like to forget
But I hope we remember this grace in the middle
His peace and his leading, no fret
Keep turning the page love, you’re right in the story
Do all you can for today
Keep turning the page love, you’re making progress
Try your best for today
Turn the page
Tell the story
You know the author
He’s safe
Turn the page
Tell the story
You know the author
He’s safe
