songs by jessej - We Will Rebuild Lyrics

This little town is where I work with pride
But I'd never seen nothing like that stormy ride
One minute folks were going about their days
The next, mighty winds were ripping it all away
Over half the homes and Main Street were wrecked
The high school gym's steel beams were all bent
I stood in disbelief as the weather turned savage
Praying that our town could survive this ravage
But we will rebuild
From the rubble we will resurrect
This town has been tested
But this place is still our home
Our families, faith, it's where we're born
This town is tougher than any storm - yeah
We will rebuild
Grandma started this diner 50 years ago
Now piled under fallen bricks and shattered windows
But don't you fret, I told my sweet little daughter
The diner will live on, because we ain't no quitters
Got trees off the roof, serving grits to the workers
Taken care of them just like her mamas mama taught her
We 'aint just biscuits - We're our whole town
Just try to keep a town like ours down
We will rebuild
From the rubble we will resurrect
This town has been tested
But this place is still our home
Our families, faith, it's where we're born
This town is tougher than any storm - yeah
We will rebuild
Yeah everybody's got their breaking point
When it's all stripped down, we make our own choices
But when our town gets sucker punched
It only gets us pumped
We will rebuild
From the rubble we will resurrect
This town has been tested
But this place is still our home
Our families, faith, it's where we're born
This town is tougher than any storm - yeah
We will rebuild
From the rubble we will resurrect
This town has been tested
But this place is still our home
Our families, faith, it's where we're born
This town is tougher than any storm- yeah
We will rebuild
We will rebuild
