The Week The River Raged Lyrics - Three Chords & The Truth - Sara Evans

The river ran through Howard County 

It was the life blood of the land 

It make fields of green tobacco 

Aching backs and callused hands 

Mama talked of a coming battle 

That the women folk had to fight 

'Cause the good lord owned the daytime 

But the devil seemed to own the night 

 

Well, it came up out of nowhere 

From a dark and bitter seed 

It was the roughest kind of roadhouse 

And a most unwanted weed 

It drew the men folk like a magnet 

The women knew what they had to do 

So they put it in the hands of Jesus 

'Cause they knew that he'd come through

Ariana Grande Adds Her Own Verse To "Last Christmas" 

 

And the rains came and the river swelled 

And the more they prayed the more it fell 

When the levies broke everybody saw 

The awesome power of God 

Then the clouds rolled back and the rainbow came 

To bring a brighter day 

'Cause when the flood hit Howard County 

All the sins were washed away 

 

Now the mothers tell the story 

Of the week that the river raged 

It's the passing of the wisdom 

To the ears of tender age 

Better walk the straight and narrow 

Better keep a watchful eye 

'Cause there's a symbol of the wrath of Heaven 

In every dark cloud in the sky

And the rains came and the river swelled 

And the more they prayed the more it fell 

When the levies broke everybody saw 

The awesome power of God 

Then the clouds rolled back and the rainbow came 

To bring a brighter day 

'Cause when the flood hit Howard County 

All the sins were washed away 

When the clouds rolled back and the rainbow came 

To bring a brighter day 

'Cause when the flood hit Howard County 

All the sins were washed away 

Yes when the flood hit Howard County 

All the sins were washed away
