Jars Of Clay - Flood [acapella] Lyrics

When I'm falling
When I'm dying
When I'm drowning
When I'm-lift me up

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 with the oh, oh
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
And 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
