Above The Storm

I remember as a child, just sitting on the porch
As the rain poured and the thunder rolled
In the safety and the warmth of my family by my side
I heard my daddy whisper low
Saying it would be alright, telling us to hold on tight
Now when the storms of our misfortune are more than I can bear
His voice, it echoes through me and it sounds like a living prayer

The sun's gonna shine, the rain will stop
The healing wind's gonna fill your heart
My love will keep you safe and warm
Little one, I'll carry you above the storm

I can see it in your eyes, I can feel it in your touch
There's worry in your innocent smile
There's a fire on the wind, there's a change that's gonna come
But I'll be with you every mile
Saying it'll be alright, we'll be walking in the line
So when the darkness of indifference starts blocking out the sun
We'll bind our hearts together and our love will overcome (just remember)

The sun's gonna shine, the rain will stop
The healing wind's gonna fill your heart
My love will keep you safe and warm
Little one, I'll carry you above the storm

Ride every highway, sail every ocean
Don't be afraid to show your emotion
And when you're grown, with kids of your own
Please tell them these words for me

The sun's gonna shine, the rain will stop
The healing wind's gonna fill your heart
My love will keep you safe and warm
The wind's gonna change, our tears will dry
The world will heal, but until that time
My love will keep you safe from harm
Little one, I'll carry you above the storm
Little one, I'm gonna carry you above the storm
Little one, little one, above the storm
