    Story Behind the Song
    This song was born shortly after 9-11-01. It talks about feelings connected with the tragedies of that day, and other life-changing days in history. Some powerful words.

    Lyrics
    Fotry winks don't seem like enough
    to get a soul through all this stuff
    We've been through some bad times
    these ain't the first
    We gotta read the good book
    in case things get worse.

    Don't you give up hope now
    there's always a way
    to find your light in the darkest day
    So come and raise your head up now
    lift up your eyes
    When you're in God's grace
    you can handle surprise

    People do their wailing
    and they swing their fists
    We'd be wise to rise above this
    Peace be the journey
    and as you crest that hill
    take forty winks 'cause time won't stand still.

    Now all of this emotion
    you just can't contain
    all your sorrow pools on the ground like rain
    But for the sweet love of Jesus
    Don't fall in dispair
    You shouldn't be on your knees
    unless you're saying your prayers

    People do their praying
    for the things they desire
    and wonder why it doesn't ever transpire
    People do their talking
    and they think their so deep
    Take forty winks 'cause talk is cheap.

    People do their fighting
    and they don't fight fair
    instead ocome to you face to face
    they crash through the air

    People do their killing
    and it's killing me
    You know we're lightyears
    from where we should be

    Forty winks
    Patience
