The Great Storm Is Over

By Bob Franke
Rise Up Singing chapter: Hope, p.116
Verse: D - G D / GA D G D / - - G A / GA Bm G A
Chorus: D - A Bm / D G A - :// (in D)

I have to admit, I'm not really sure what this song is about. I guess that's why it's in the chapter Hope. A lot of hopeful imagery, but no specific subject matter.

Update: A helpful commenter (on youTube) posted this a few months ago:
"basically the song is about the end times. A lot of the imagery is from either the Book of Isaiah or the Book of Revelation. I hadn't gotten the symbolism about the mother in the song representing the Church, though. Neat!"

Lyrics:
The thunder and lightning gave voice to the night
The little lame child cried alound in her fright
(alt: "The little small child cried alound in her fright" but that's redundant.)
Hush little baby, a story I'll tell
Of a love that has vanquished the powers of hell

Alleluia, the great storm is over
Lift up your wings and fly (repeat)
