To All The Poets

Gloria Gaither, Andrew Peterson

[Verse 1]
To all the poets I have known
Who saw the beauty in the commonplace
Saw incarnation in a baby's face
And in a drop of rain, the stars
When there was mud and blood and tears
You sang a song at night to calm our fears
You made a moment last a thousand years
You are the poets I have known

[Verse 2]
To all the poets I have known
You built a kingdom out of sea and sand
You conquered armies with a marching band
You carved a galaxy in stone
You built an altar out of bread
And spent your soul to see the children fed
You wove your heart in every story read
Thank God for poets I have known

[Chorus 1]
And you keep on drеaming when the dreams all fadе
When friends desert me you're the ones who stayed
To write the prayers when every prayer'd been prayed
You are the poets I have known

[Verse 3]
You turned your tears into a string of pearls
You held your sorrow high to light the world
When I thought I was alone
In every man, you saw the boy
The hidden heart the dark could not destroy
Slipped past the dragons with a tale of joy
Thank God for poets I have known

[Chorus 2]
'Cause you keep on dreaming when the dreams all fade
When friends desert me you're the ones who stayed
To write the prayers when every prayer'd been prayed
You walking wounded of my life

[Verse 4]
Who bled compassion in the heat of strife
You stood between my heart and Satan's knife
With just the armor of a song
You are the heroes and the brave
Who, with a slender pen, our passions save
And chisel epitaphs upon the graves
Of all the poets I have known

[Outro]
So keep on dreaming
Keep on dreaming
So keep on dreaming, oh
Keep on dreaming
Keep on dreaming
