Lyrics

[Mama Noah]
Oh look out there in the eastern sky
Is that a hint of light?
Oh come and look I need to know
If I am seeing right
We lived so long in dark
I'm almost frightened to believe
Those clearing skies on that glistening horizon
Please tell me my eyes
Do not decieve me

Ain't it sweet to smell the morning
In a world washed fresh and clean
Now the storm has left its warning
And we see, we see a hint of green
Pale grey light grow strong and golden
And release us from our pen
Where we rocked for endless days
On a sea of endless greys
Now we sing a song of praise, Amen
Ain't it good
Ain't it good now
Ain't it good to see the sun again

When my ears were filled with thunder
And when my soul began to shake
There were times I'd truly wonder
If those clouds would ever break
But no storm will last forever
Though we felt so helpless then
Now we raise a joyful chant
For a glimpse of olive plant
Haven't seen one since I can't
I can't remember when

Ain't it good
Oh ain't it good
Our hearts are dancing
Hopes
So Good
We got a second chance

[Storytellers (counter to Mama Noah)]
When my ears
They were filled thunder
And when my soul, when my soul began to shake
There were times
I would truly wonder
Those dark and gloomy rain clouds
If those clouds would ever break
But there's no storm
No storm can last forever
We felt so helpless ooh
Can't remember when it felt so good

When skies are clearing
How our hearts begin to dance
Now our hopes are reappearing
Since we've been granted a second chance

[Mama Noah]
And for now
We are done with fearing
We might be
The final generation
In a dawn that's new and fresh
Open wide this floating creche
And deliver
Every precious specimen

[Storytellers (counter to Mama Noah)]
And for now
We are done with fearing
We thought we'd be the final generation
In a dawn
Open wide
And deliver

[Mama Noah And Storytellers]
Oh Ain't it good oh ain't it good
Ain't it good
[Mama Noah]
Ain't it good now
[Storytellers]
Ain't it good
[Mama Noah And Storytellers]
Ain't it good to see the sun again
My Lord

[Mama Noah]
After all the nights we stood
Smelling of rain and gopher wood
[Mama Noah and Storytellers]
Ain't it Good
[Mama Noah]
To see the sun again!

[Storytellers]
Oh ain't it good
To see the shining golden sun again
