You Always Belong
a song for my grandchildren 

Nag’s Head, NC, June 2024
You Always Belong, a song for my grandchildren
Papy, June 2024. F, 6/8, ♩. = 84ish.
 
Open your eyes and the people you see
Know you and love you, they’re your family
Brigid and Abi, Jacob and Luis and Eden
The order and number 
Don’t matter ‘cuz you, all belong
 
Open your arms to cousins and aunts and uncles
And grandmas and grandpas and chosen kin relations, they’re near
Oceans and mountains, and in deserts and cities and farms, 
and suburbs all over the globe
So any place you choose, can be home
 
……… so please
Open your heart to God
Who fills us with air from his lungs
And is filling our stories with courage and glories
 
Everyone sing
Wherever I go, I’m home
I’ll never be alone
Whoever I become: I know Jesus is near
