Higher Power

I was alone, I was a starving eremite without a home And the sand in the hourglass pouring on A howling wolf without a pack, little did I know There was a seed And with some water and attention it would lead Into a leaf turning into a tree Roots spreading through the darkest woods, little did I know I didn't know I see a higher power rise A spirit larger than life Cuttin' right through the fire Turning the wind, right before my eyes I see a higher power rise A spirit larger than life Digging right through the dirt Releasing the dam, and so I arise On my own Kept walking through the wilderness 'til I had grown Into a thousand-year-old oak, give me a throne And I'll wear the crown of thorns, little did I know I didn't know I see a higher power rise A spirit larger than life Cuttin' right through the fire Turning the wind, right before my eyes I see a higher power rise A spirit larger than life Digging right through the dirt Releasing the dam, and so I arise And so, I arise Oh, I didn't know And so I arise Oh, I didn't know, oh, oh I see a higher power rise A spirit larger than life Cuttin' right through the fire Turning the wind, right before my eyes I see a higher power rise A spirit larger than life Digging right through the dirt Releasing the dam, and so I arise And so I arise
