I’ve abandoned the details that took all my time
Had to level the landscape so I could move in stright lines
And God bless this house. God bless this house
I’m through weathering storms of insatiable need
Where everything pulls and nothing relieves
And God bless this life. God bless this life
And if I got older and wiser
It wasn’t my fault
And I’m done with the longing, the unsatisfied heart
And I pass them all on to those ‘bout to start
And God Bless this child. God bless this child
‘Cause God’s in the details
