Lyrics Jars of Clay

Jars of Clay

Flood

Rain rain on my face

It hasn't stopped raining for days

My world is a flood

Slowly I become one with the mud

But if I can't swim after forty days

And my mind is crushed by the crashing 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

Down pour on my soul

Splashing in the ocean I'm losing control

Dark sky all around

I can't feel my feet touching the ground

But if I can't swim after forty days

And my mind is crushed by the crashing 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

Calm the storms that drench my eyes

And dry the streams still flowing

Casting down all the waves of sin

And guilt that overthrow me

If I can't swim after forty days

And my mind is crushed by the crashing waves

Lift me up so high that I cannot fall - Lift me up
