Boots by the Bench
Style: Gospel celebration

[Verse 1]
Boots stand lined beneath the bench
Caked in earth from tending trees
We see the work your hands have done
We see you clear, Elise

[Pre-chorus]
So let the whole room stand and sing
Let every voice come lift and swing
We're building up to say your name

[Chorus]
Elise, the room is calling you
Elise, we mean it, through and through
Nobody else could hold this space
You bring the warmth this whole place needs

[Verse 2]
You kneel down low to help things grow
Patient hands, a steady breeze
Whatever storms come through this year
You're the calm that brings us ease

[Bridge]
Clap your hands and stomp your feet
Say her name out in the street
This is your day, hold your head high
Let the whole room testify

[Chorus]
Elise, the room is calling you
Elise, we mean it, through and through
Nobody else could hold this space
You bring the warmth this whole place needs

[Outro]
Those boots will wait beneath the bench
But you're the reason this house breathes
