Loving kindness in each nail
Planks that never trip the feet
Lead you from the shady street
Or the winter's gale
Behind the bright red door
Across a smooth wood floor
Strewn with seas of scattered shoes
The music sweet and clear
Delighful to your ear
Siren's song you can't refuse
This is the band that Dave built
Song that spills into the town
Joy and hope in every note
Melodies that seem to float
Up the stairs and down
And a whirlwind of Elizabeth
To blow an order on the chaos
Warm as any southern zephyr
Welcome as the sun in spring
The magic of a giving heart
That beats a rhythm for the household
Rippling like golden water
Through the music that they sing
This is the house that love built
Love and music hope and soul
Come and share it and renew
Carry it away with you
To keep your spirit whole

These are the steps that Ruth built Loving kindness in each nail Planks that never trip the feet Lead you from the shady street Or the winter's gale Behind the bright red door Across a smooth wood floor Strewn with seas of scattered shoes The music sweet and clear Delighful to your ear Siren's song you can't refuse This is the band that Dave built Song that spills into the town Joy and hope in every note Melodies that seem to float Up the stairs and down And a whirlwind of Elizabeth To blow an order on the chaos Warm as any southern zephyr Welcome as the sun in spring The magic of a giving heart That beats a rhythm for the household Rippling like golden water Through the music that they sing This is the house that love built Love and music hope and soul Come and share it and renew Carry it away with you To keep your spirit whole Words and music: Kathy Mar Copyright 2002 Kathy Mar Explain Request ×
