The thunder and lightning gave voice to the night
The little lost child cried aloud in her fright
Hush little baby a story I will tell
Of a love that has vanquished the powers of hell

Hallelujah the great storm is over lift up your wings and fly

Sweetness on the air and justice on the wind
Laughter in the house where the mourners had been
The deaf shall have music the blind shall have new eyes
The standards of death taken down by suprise

Hallelujah the great storm is over lift up your wings and fly

Release for the captives an end to all the wars
Streams in the desert new hope for the poor
The little lost children shall dance as they sing
And play with the bears and the lions in spring

Hallelujah the great storm is over lift up your wings and fly

Hush little baby let go of your fears
The Lord loves his own and your mother is here
The babe fell asleep as the lantern did burn
The mother kept singing till her bridegroom's return

Hallelujah the great storm is over lift up your wings and fly
