Flood Waters

Josh Garrels

Flood Waters

Higher than the yonder mountain

and deeper than the sea

From the breadth of the east unto the west

Is the love that started with a seed

Stronger than the wildest horses

and the rising tide

The chords of death hung

so heavy round our necks

Will be left at the great divide

Flood waters rise,

but it wont wash away

Love never dies,

it will hold on more fierce than graves

Farther than the pale moon

rises upon the open plains

Past the time of the longest blood line

There shines an immortal flame

Somewhere in between forever

and this passing day

There’s a place moth and rust cannot lay waste

This is grace, the face of love

Flood waters rise,

but it wont wash away

Love never dies,

it will hold on more fierce than grave

Flood waters rise,

but it wont wash away

Love never dies,

it will hold on more fierce than grave
