Dry Town

Jill Phillips


I can feel the sun beating on my face 
And my feet are covered with the burning sand 
My Garden of Eden has been replaced 
With the drought that comes with the desert land 
No fruit trees and no river bends 
You could walk miles and see no signs of life 
But I still believe this drought will end 
Even if there are no clouds in sight 

CHORUS: 
Like a hard rain in a dry town 
You bring life to this dead ground 
And You are hope for this run down 
Old dry town 

Sometimes I run so far from you 
Sometimes I trade my joy for pain 
Sometimes I know what I should do 
But to follow through I need your strength 

CHORUS
