Everlasting Arm
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
And so with the explorers on my heels I started t'wheel
Stepped aside stone walls, i was sick of it all
And so I set my sail on yr coattails and yr warm shawl
Up where there's an Everlasting Arm, sends us out alone, moves
us out of harm
Ever-reaching always sweeping...And though I struggled t'take my
place
there stood my mistake
Standing there like some great big theatre curtain he knew for
certain I'd come down on you softly
Up where...
By and by the gates swung wide
Loved ones came in sight
Storming down the street like Puerto-Rican kids in a summer
rain
Breaking open the hydrants and going insane
Up where...
