Em
I hear a sound and turn to see
A#A new direction on that rusty weathervane
C
Suddenly the dead brown leaves are stirred
GmC7
To scratch their circle dances down the lane
Em
And now the sturdy oaks start clappin’
A#
With the last few stubborn leaves that won’t let go
C
I can hear Old Glory snappin’
GmC7
And her tattered rope now clangin’ against the pole
(Chorus)
F
And my breath is snatched away
C
And a tear comes to my eye
F
Feels like somethin’s on the way
A#
So I look up to the sky
I look up to the sky and
FA#
From the corners of creation
CC7
Comes the Father’s holy breath
FA#
Ridin’ on a storm with tender fierceness
GmFCEm
Stirring my soul to holiness
A#FCF
Stirring my soul to holiness
(VERSE2)
I see the lifeless dust now resurrected
Swirling up against my window pane
And carried ‘cross the distance
Come the long awaited fragrances of earth and rain
And out across the amber field
The slender grasses bend and bow
And kiss the ground
And in them I see the beauty of the souls
Who let the Spirit lay them down
(Chorus)
And it takes my breath away
And a tear comes to my eye
Feels like somethin’s on the way
So I look up to the sky
I look up to the sky and
From the corners of creation
Comes the Father’s holy breath
Ridin’ on a storm with tender fierceness
Stirring my soul to holiness
Stirring my soul to holiness
(Bridge)
CEm
And like a mighty wind blows with a force I cannot see
AmEmAmEm
I will open wide my wings, I will open wide my wings
AmEmA#CF
I will open wide my wings and let the Spirit carry me
From the corners of creation
Comes the Father’s holy breath
Ridin’ on a storm with tender fierceness
Stirring my soul to holiness
Stirring my soul to holiness
