Three Days of Darkness
outlaw country heartfelt acousticLyrics
[Verse]
The preacher man spoke of days coming fast,
Three nights of darkness, how long would it last?
Candles flickered as the sun hid its face,
World stood still in that blackened embrace.
[Verse 2]
Grannies whispered tales over kitchen tables,
Of old prophecies and fabled fables.
Candles and lanterns were the only light,
In the three days, we wrestled with night.
[Chorus]
Oh, three days of darkness, what would they bring?
In the silence, we’d hear angels sing.
Hold on to hope as the world stood still,
Waiting for that solar flash, a heavenly thrill.
[Verse 3]
Farmhands paused their plows, eyes to the sky,
In that stillness, seemed none dared to cry.
Crickets sang songs in the absent moon's glow,
In three days of shadows, time seemed to slow.
[Bridge]
From the east to the west, the tales they did spread,
Of a flash so bright, waking the dead.
The lost and forgotten would find their way,
In the flash of light, igniting the day.
[Verse 4]
Then as quick as it came, the light returned bold,
Pure and radiant, breaking the hold.
Man, woman, child, we all felt the change,
Hearts opening wide, nothing felt strange.
