Sky’s A-Clearing Gary Furr Had my head down for a long time Same thoughts running ‘round in my weary mind Dead-end road and a heavy load Weighing down on me Then one morning without warning I was free All the preaching that I listened to Told me bad news was always fixing to Come crashing down like an avalanche on my worthless soul But love surprised me as far as the eye could see Everything was whole Chorus Sky’s a-clearing, the time is nearing The clouds are breaking up, my hopes are waking up The burden’s lifting, life is shifting And I have the strength to go on I’ve been counting all my blessings Finding grace after confessing All those hands that I once slapped away Still reaching out to me And now I hold on like a drowning man in an angry sea. Chorus On the one hand, I’m less certain Of what might be behind the curtain Easy answers, like a cancer Leave you looking for a friend. But on the other, I’ve discovered A Love that never ends Chorus
