Lyrics
Hear That Lion Roar by Tommy Patterson
Lost in the jungle I can't find the trail
The predators are stalking me they sense I'm weak and frail
Surrounded by noises that echo in the night
My heart is racing it's time to flee or fight
Watch out for the quick sand and those venomous snakes
And the crocodiles that hide out in the lake
Chorus: Life is like the jungle-there's danger all around
There's always somethin' out there tryin' to take me down
I've had enough-I'm not runnin' anymore
It's time to watch the eagle soar and Hear That Lion Roar
The wings of an eagle can carry it in flight
High above the earth where it sees everything in sight
The strength and the courage of a lion is well known
The other animals leave it alone
The morning sun shines on the trail no need to run and hide
With the eagle and the lion by my side
Repeat Chorus:
It's time to take control stop living in doubt
I found an answered prayer on my way out
Repeat Chorus: tag out
