F#m
I hear a sound and turn to see
D
A new direction on that rusty weathervane
E
Suddenly the dead brown leaves are stirred
Bm Esus4
To scratch their circle dances down the lane
F#m
And now the sturdy oaks start clappin’
D
With the last few stubborn leaves that won’t let go
E
I can hear Old Glory snappin’
Bm Esus4
And her tattered rope now clangin’ against the pole
(CHORUS)
A
And my breath is snatched away
E
And a tear comes to my eye
A
Feels like somethin’s on the way
D
So I look up to the sky
I look up to the sky and
A D
From the corners of creation
E Esus4
Comes the Father’s holy breath
A D
Ridin’ on a storm with tender fierceness
Bm A E F#m
Stirring my soul to holiness
D A E A
Stirring my soul to holiness
(VERSE2)
F#m
I see the lifeless dust now resurrected
D
Swirling up against my window pane
E
And carried ‘cross the distance
Bm Esus4
Come the long awaited fragrances of earth and rain
F#m
And out across the amber field
The slender grasses bend and bow
D
And kiss the ground
Bm Esus4
And in them I see the beauty of the souls
E
Who let the Spirit lay them down
(CHORUS)
A
And it takes my breath away
E
And a tear comes to my eye
A
Feels like somethin’s on the way
D
So I look up to the sky
I look up to the sky and
A D
From the corners of creation
E Esus4
Comes the Father’s holy breath
A D
Ridin’ on a storm with tender fierceness
Bm A E F#m
Stirring my soul to holiness
D A E A
Stirring my soul to holiness
(BRIDGE)
E Bm/E
And like a mighty wind blows with a force I cannot see
D F#m D F#m
I will open wide my wings, I will open wide my wings
D F#m D E A
I will open wide my wings and let the Spirit carry me
A D
From the corners of creation
E Esus4
Comes the Father’s holy breath
A D
Ridin’ on a storm with tender fierceness
Bm A E F#m
Stirring my soul to holiness
D A E A
Stirring my soul to holiness
