Jars of Clay cover
08. Flood
Album: Jars of Clay
Artist: Jars of Clay
         
 

Rain, rain on my face
It hasn't stopped raining for days
My world is a flood
Slowly I become one with the mud

CHORUS

But if I can't swim after forty days
And my mind is crushed by the thrashing waves
Lift me up so high that I cannot fall
Lift me up
Lift me up - when I'm falling
Lift me up - I'm weak and i'm dying
Lift me up - I need you to hold me
Lift me up - keep me from drowning again

Downpour on my soul
Splashing in the ocean, I'm losing control
Dark sky all around
I can't feel my feet touching the ground

CHORUS

Calm the storms that drench my eyes
Dry the streams still flowing
Cast down all the waves of sin
And guilt that overthrow me

CHORUS

Lift me up - when I'm falling
Lift me up - I'm weak and i'm dying
Lift me up - I need you to hold me
Lift me up - keep me from drowning again
