lyrics

Out ran the storm last night, it was damn near a hurricane
Wind picked up and the rain came hard, I knew it was comin for me
Didn’t think it would be that bad, came in kind of fast
Creeks ran high and the levee broke, I thought I was gonna drown
But I saw a black crow cryin on a high wire
I saw Jesus walk on water come for me
I heard a wise old man say take to higher ground
Raise up your hand take the crown
Sometimes you find yourself in a world full of misery
Take a look around my friend, you’re not the only one
No one said it would all be good, take it all with the bad
Take my word and listen to me as I sit here and testify…
CHORUS
