“Forty Days” (Noah’s Ark)
Forty Days!
[Verse 1]
The Lord looked down and the world was wild
Every heart was dark, every thought defiled
But Noah found grace in the Father’s eyes
And the word came down from the holy skies
[Chorus]
Forty days on the endless sea
Rain came down like a prophecy
When the waters rise and the storms obey
Only the righteous find their way
[Verse 2]
Build the ark from the gopher wood
Seal it tight like the Lord said you should
Two by two came the beasts of the land
And the ark was closed by the Master’s hand
[Chorus]
Forty days on the endless sea
Rain came down like a prophecy
When the waters rise and the storms obey
Only the righteous find their way
[Bridge]
The fountains broke and the sky grew black
But the Lord held fast, never turned His back
And when the dove brought the olive leaf home
They knew the flood was over and gone
[Final Chorus]
Forty days on the endless sea
Rain came down like a prophecy
When the waters rise and the storms obey
Only the righteous find their way
[Outro]
On Ararat’s stone where the ark did rest
Noah bowed down and the Lord blessed
