Bright-Open Skies (original song)

Bright-Open Skies (acoustic original)

 

Lyrics:

 

A raging flood poured down for forty days. 

Beyond our ship, all lives were washed away.

We clung to life, ‘neath thundering clouds.

Flood waters sank the wicked and the proud.

(Chorus)

 

Chorus:

Sing me a song of a better tomorrow

Under bright open, under bright-open skies.

Friend, do you have some hope that I can borrow?

Under bright open, under bright-open skies.

 

Spun round and round, while pummeled by the waves.

All that we owned, so little we could save.

Held babies tight, no rudder to steer.

No light to see.  When would it appear?

(Chorus)

 

The thunder stopped.  Our prayers never ceased.

Up seemed like down.  The west seemed like the east.

An olive branch brought back by a dove.

A rainbow stretched by our God with love.

(Chorus)
