Lightning Flash
Annie Herring
I sat and watched the waves
Beat yesterdays into the ground
Like through an hourglass
The hours passed without sound
Circling above me the sound of wings
The earth shakes my feet
And she starts to sing
Then I saw the lightning flash
Heard the thunder in the sky
Then I saw the lightning flash
Heard the thunder in the sky
Now time stands still in space
The cloud-like lace surrounds Him
The perfect love affair
His bride to carry is home
Longing to tell her the love He bore
Was worth His whole life
And there's nothing worth more
Then I saw the lightning flash
Heard the thunder in the sky
Then I saw the lightning flash
Heard the thunder in the sky
