The rain falls like soldiers Over stone rivers and barren lands Loaded phrases are fired They strike from the tongues that command Flashes of lightning split the air like bullets Defiant they stand A storm raging down The ground shakes in God's hands The sky is alive with thunder The sky is alive with thunder The sky is alive with thunder The world is electric This world is electric The sky is alive with thunder This world is electric This world is electric Took so much Took a home Took a life in a moment When it seems all but hopeless Let vision stay focused
