"Welcome to Holland" c2004 by Will Livingston
You were set You had made all of your plans had the summer to yourself you were off to Paris, France
Just to see A place you thought you'd never be and from the history to the food right down to your parlez-vous
But as the plane is touching down you start to look around and you don't recognize this town and then you hear
Welcome to Holland This may not be what you had planned but it's where we had to land today we hope that you enjoy your stay in Holland
And I know, I know, I know I'll grow to understand The master's plan right here in Holland
You've grown up You've matured beyond those years set aside your foolish doubts cast away your childish fears
And now a wife and soon a baby on the way momma's got a month to go but that boy won't wait another day
And as the doctors gather you around to tell you what they've found your heart your heart nearly hit the ground
But ain't that the way life seems to go you look one way your going down another road Welcome to Holland
This may not be what we had planned the cards just fell into our hands this way we are merely potter's clay in Holland
And I've been here once before I learned that God has bigger things in store for us in Holland |
