Quecreek

At the Quecreek mine nine miners went down

Two hundred and forty feet deep in the ground

The night shift went a mile when there came a shout

Somebody's hit water everybody gotta get outIt was over their heads and too fast to outrun

Together they were tied to live or die as one

Help came from all round but the drill stripped and broke

So the men penned goodbyes and wives hoped against hopeWhen the waters come up

When you go through the flood

In the Lord you can trust

He will be there with usNow Jesus was laid in a hole in the ground

He was dead, but the third day God's hand brought him out

And the miners were buried three nights and three days

But like Jesus Sunday morning all nine men were raised
