The Rope

The Rope)” Verse 1 Fourteen years around the table Open Word and open hearts Terra, you showed us the Gospel Meets us right where we are When doubt would try to shake us When sorrow filled the room You pointed us to Jesus And hope began to bloom Pre-Chorus You never claimed the glory You just bowed your head and prayed But heaven saw the seeds you sowed In every life you changed Chorus You’ve been a faithful light in the dark A steady hand, a shepherd’s heart Through every question, every fight You led The Rope back to Christ When storms would rise and fear would start You showed us where His mercies are Fourteen years and still we see The love of God in Terra’s faithfulness Verse 2 Bound together as The Rope Stronger strand by strand You taught us we don’t walk alone We’re held in Jesus’ hands You walked with us through valleys Through sickness, loss, and tears Reminding us His promises Are stronger than our fears Pre-Chorus You taught us how to listen You taught us how to pray You showed us how to follow Him In ordinary days Chorus You’ve been a faithful light in the dark A steady hand, a shepherd’s heart Through every question, every fight You led The Rope back to Christ When storms would rise and fear would start You showed us where His mercies are Fourteen years and still we see The love of God in Terra’s faithfulness Bridge (slow and personal) You’ve helped BJ find her courage And Lori stand so strong You’ve walked with Eileen through the fire And carried her along You steadied Lori’s trembling heart You lifted Flapper’s head You’ve poured out hope on Rhonda’s path With every word you’ve said And as for me — you never let My hope in Jesus fade Each name is written on your heart Each prayer you’ve prayed still stands You tied us tight together With love that points to Him Final Chorus (strong and joyful) You’ve been a faithful light in the dark A servant soul, a willing heart Through every season, joy and strife You helped The Rope build lives on Christ And though the years keep rolling on Your faithfulness will carry on Fourteen years — what grace to see Christ’s love in Terra so faithfully Tag (soft): Thank you, Terra, for holding The Rope — And leading each of us to Jesus.
