Higher Ground - Aaron Watson

When life hits you like a hurricane

Blind sides you with pain

High winds and rain

And you see no end in sight

Though darkness may fall

And there’s no hope at all

I know you’ll stand tall

Like a beacon in the night

I pray you always be strong

You always be brave

Take heart and hold on for dear life

Wave after wave, after all those tears fall down, down, down

Come hell or high water

Only love will find you higher ground

When the streets are flooded with hate

Stand firm at your gate

Keep your faith and forgive, and be just like a child

There’s no color or race, just a beautiful face

Make the world a better place

Change their life with your smile

I pray you always be strong

You always be brave

Take heart and hold on for dear life

Wave after wave, after all those tears fall down, down, down

Come hell or high water

Only love will find you higher ground

I pray you always be strong

You always be brave

Take heart and hold on for dear life

Wave after wave, after all those tears fall down, down, down

Come hell or high water

Only love will find you higher ground
