Full Force Gale
Van Morrison Lyrics
Like a full force gale
I was lifted up again
I was lifted up again by the Lord
No matter where I roam
I will find my way back home
I will always return to the Lord
In the gentle evening breeze
By the whispering shady trees
I was headed for a fall
Then I saw the writing on the wall
Like a full force gale
I was lifted up again
I was lifted up again by the Lord
I was headed for a fall
Then I looked up and saw the writing on the wall
In the gentle evening breeze
By the whispering shady trees
I will find my sanctuary in the Lord
And no matter where I roam
I will find my way back home
I will always return to the Lord
Like a full force
Like a full force gale
I was lifted up again
I was lifted up again by the Lord
I was lifted up again, lifted up
I said I was lifted up, by the Lord
Lifted up again, lifted up again, lifted up again
By the Lord
