Larkin Poe
God Moves on the Water
[Verse 1]
Year of nineteen hundred and twelve
April, the fourteenth day
Great Titanic struck an iceberg
The people had to run and pray
[Chorus]
God moves (Moves)
Moves (Moves)
God moves (Moves)
And the people had to run and pray (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
[Verse 2]
The rains came down in twenty-six
Louisiana up Arkansas way
The rich and poor, the mother and child
The people had to run and pray
[Chorus]
God moves (Moves)
Moves (Moves)
God moves (Moves)
And the people had to run and pray (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
[Verse 3]
When the streets of San Francisco
Buckled like a horseshoe belt
And the fires raged and the buildings fell
Oh, the pain that those good folks felt
[Chorus]
God moves (Moves)
Moves (Moves)
God moves (Moves)
And the people had to run and pray (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
[Bridge]
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
[Verse 4]
Mighty woman, mighty man
Livin' in a world they don't understand
Come together, it's the only way
I'm reachin' out, you gotta take my hand
[Chorus]
God moves (Moves)
Moves (Moves)
God moves (Moves)
And the people had to run and pray (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
[Outro]
God moves (Moves)
God moves (Moves)
God moves (Moves)
And the people had to run and pray (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Well
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
