Verse 1

I was raised where the fence posts lean

And the porch boards know my name

Mama kept a jar of summer beans

Dad taught me how to face the rain

I learned that work can leave a mark

And promises can pull you through

When the road goes cold and dark

I hear the things they taught me do

Pre-Chorus

Every mile I thought would break me

Left a little more to carry

Chorus

Your strength is in my bones

It walks with me wherever I roam

In the hands that built this home

In the truth I’ve always known

When the hard wind starts to howl
