This song is loosely based on a chapter from "The Silver Chair," part of C.S. Lewis' Chronicles of Narnia series. If you want to know more about the specifics of the songs' context you can always Facebook the lyricist Rusty Vining and he'll be happy to converse about it.
lyrics
There's a song I've been trying to write
For the better part of my life
To paint a picture of darkness and light
And make something meaningful before I die
But every song sounds like a rough draft
Telling stories on God's behalf
Nothing is new under the sun
I have forgotten most everyone
Mountains and valleys, rivers and oceans,
Mothers and newborns, devotion
The sun, the moon, the forest, the soil
The rain and the harvest the laborers toil
From every height to every depth
The lovers whisper the lion's breath
Be still my heart! My soul find rest!
