If I took away your table and chairs
Stole away your wife and child,
see how lonesome you would be
Is that what it would take
If I took away your legs,
If I took away your words,
Blinded your eyes, you could never see
Is that what it would take
I am the thunder you refuse to hear
I am the rock you can't hide under
You have nothing more to fear
This is a time for healing
if I gave you a roof to stay under
Would that save you from the storm?
Do you think that means your troubles,
Is that what it would take
I am the thunder you refuse to hear
I am the rock you can't hide under
You have nothing more to fear
This is a time for healing
dig your roots deep in the land
Here's a blade to turn the soil,
grow something in the sand
I'll give you all my blessings,
my blood runs through your veins
My son, just listen to me
I am the thunder you refuse to hear
I am the rock you can't hide under
You have nothing more to fear
This is a time for healing
This is a time for healing
