If you know me well, you know that one of my favorite bands is Caedmon's Call. On their latest album, they have a song entitled "Sacred" that is an excellent representation of my life right now. Abby and Caleb both love the entire album, particularly this song. Abby sings along every time, which makes the song all the more precious to me.

This house is a good mess
It's the proof of life
No way would I trade jobs
But it don't pay overtime
I'll get to the laundry
I don't know when
I'm saying a prayer tonight
'Cause tomorrow it starts again
Could it be that everything is sacred?
And all this time
Everything I've dreamed of
Has been right before my eyes
The children are sleeping
But they're running through my mind
The sun makes them happy
And the music makes them unwind
My cup runneth over
And I worry about the stain
Teach me to run to You
Like they run to me for every little thing
When I forget to drink from You
I can feel the banks harden
Lord, make me like a stream
To fill the garden
Wake up little sleeper
The Lord God Almighty
Made your mama keeper
So rise and shine, rise and shine
Rise and shine, cause...
The Kids

I love Caedmon's Call too. I didn't know about this new album--good to know! What a great song with great lyrics. Although I'm not a stay-at-home-mom, I identify with the overall theme/message of the song. I particularly like the 2 stanzas that start with "My cup runneth over" and "When I forget to drink from You".
Thanks for sharing!
