Just a Boy

In a small town, the fields stretch wide,

the horizon always meets the sky,

I’m twenty-three, still trying to find

A place where I can just be myself.

The Bible’s heavy in the air,

it’s love and grace I need to share,

In a world where I’m asked to fit,

Into molds that don’t work for it.

Oh, I’m a boy in Iowa,

Trying to find my way,

With a heart that beats for love,

In a land where the old ways stay.

I’m reaching out to Heaven,

For a sign ill be okay,

In this journey of my soul,

I’m just trying to find my place.

Sunday mornings, the bells ring loud,

And I try to blend amidst the crowd,

my heart is in a different song,

A love that’s true, where I belong.

I pray for strength and for light,

To guide me through these lonely nights,

In a world that’s so divided,

I’m here, and I won’t be denied.

Oh, I’m a boy in Iowa,

Trying to find my way,

With a heart that beats for love,

In a land where the old ways stay.

I’m reaching out to Heaven,

For a sign that Ill be okay,

In this journey of my soul,

I’m just trying to find my place.

I know the road is long and winding,

But love’s the truth Im trying to find and ,

though I don’t fit the mold,

I’ve got a story yet to be told.

In the silence, I hear whispers,

Of a love that never falters,

In the prayers that rise above,

I’m embraced by endless love.

Oh, I’m a boy in Iowa,

Trying to find my way,

With a heart that beats for love,

In a land where the old ways stay.

I’m reaching out to Heaven,

For a sign that I’ll be okay,

In this journey of my soul,

I’m just trying to find my place.

As I walk these fields and roads,

I’ll carry love, I’ll carry hope,

The truth that’s written in my heart,

That I’m enough, and I’m a part,

Of a world where love will always stay,

Guiding me through every day.
