Story behind the song
This is the story of a man who is saved after the rapture of the church. He escapes to the mountains of Montana and lives on the land throughout the tribulation
Lyrics
In a cabin by the lake I drink fresh from the river
I plant my own garden and brew my own beer
I'll be alive when Jesus takes over
Noone's gonna find me out here
Whisper the words of your father, sweet Mary
There's blood on my hands but skies are all clear
I'll be alive when Jesus takes over,
Noone's gonna find me out here
Chorus:
I worked all day in the sun,
And when my cabin was done,
I soaked my war-torn hands in the river of love
In a cabin by the lake I drink fresh from the river,
I plant my own garden and brew my own beer
I'll be alive when Jesus takes over,
Noone's gonna find me out here
I ran from the clenches of the dark
The devil couldn't make me take his mark,
Now I live in peace with the birds and the bees who are singing from the bottom of their hearts
In a cabin by the lake....
Repeat Chorus
Out in the mountains of westardly wonders
I just can't imagine my life without deer!
I wanna die in the simplest of pleasures
Noone's gonna find me out here
