      D				G	     D
The thunder and lightning gave voice to the night
	           Bm          G            D
The little, lost child cried aloud in her fright
                        G           D
"Hush, little baby, a story I will tell
                    Bm             G         A
Of a love that has vanquished the powers of hell"
                 D               A            Bm
	CHORUS:  Alleluia, the great storm is over
             D        G          A     A7
	Lift up your wings and fly
        D               A            Bm         D        G          A  A7
	Alleluia, the great storm is over, lift up your wings and fly
  D                       G              D
Sweetness on the air and justice on the wind
                 Bm               G            D
Laughter in the house where the mourners had been
                     G                        D
The deaf shall have music, the blind have new eyes
                Bm            G           A
The standards of death taken down by surprise
	CHORUS
   D                         G           D
Release for the captives, an end to the wars
                Bm          G            D
Streams in the desert, new hope for the poor
                                 G             D
The little, lost children shall dance as they sing
                 Bm              G              A
And play with the bears and the lions in the spring
	CHORUS
  D                      G           D
"Hush, little baby, let go of your fears
                 Bm              G         D
The Lord loves his own and your mother is here"
                             G           D
The babe fell asleep as the lantern did burn
                    Bm                G             A
The mother kept on singing 'til her bridegroom's return
	CHORUS 2X (last time resolve to a 'D' chord)
