Soms is het moeilijk te verwoorden hoe de Afrika tijd is geweest. Maar Sara Groves heeft hier een prachtig lied over geschreven. Daarom ga ik graag weer terug..

AFRICA

I saw what I saw and I can’t forget it
I heard what I heard and I can’t go back
I know what I know and I can’t deny it

Something on the road, cut me to the soul

Your pain has changed me
your dream inspires
your face a memory
your hope a fire
your courage asks me what I’m afraid of
what I am made of
and what I know of love

We’ve done what we’ve done,

and we can’t erase it
We are what we are

and it’s more than enough
We have what we have,
but it’s no substitution

I say what I say with no hesitation
I have what I have and I’m giving it up
I do what I do with deep conviction

Something on the road, changed my world

(Sara Groves– I saw what I saw)
