Josh Turner "Tears of God" |
Some had on the Rebel Gray Some the Union Blue They were fathers, sons, and brothers Men like me and you Engaged in heavy battle �Til there came that cloudy draw When silence took the battlefield And men just stood in awe Some say it was the cannon smoke Some say the Northern Lights That cast a ghostly image over Fredericksburg that night Some say it was God's spirit looking over the bloody sight And that rainbow mist that filled the sky, Or was it tears of God Both sides read His holy word And believed it in their hearts But the common ground he'd blessed them with Had now been torn apart Covered by the blood they shed So many lost their life The fight on that Virginia hill was enough to make him cry Some say it was the cannon smoke Some say the Northern Lights That cast a ghostly image over Fredericksburg that night Some say it was God's spirit looking over the bloody sight And that rainbow mist that filled the sky, Or was it tears of God Some say it was the cannon smoke Some say the Northern Lights That cast a ghostly image over Fredericksburg that night Some say it was God's spirit looking over the bloody sight And that rainbow mist that filled the sky, Or was it tears of God Lyric from www.lyricmania.com |
