lyrics

SWEETWATER

This is where I died, this is where I died
This is where I laid my head to rest
This is when I knew, this is when I flew
This is when my soul was freed from pain.
Step after step, following Grace
Step after step, when I’m faced with Faith

In the shadow of my Mother, holding hands with my brother
Down into the river where the ice cuts new,
Down into the river where he carried me through

Sweet is the water, bitter to know
Freezing all my bones in the swirling snow
If you walked for 40 days, then I’ll walk for 40 nights
Come and take me home Lord, help me take flight

In the shadow of my Mother, holding hands with my brother
Down into the river where the ice cuts new,
Weary is my body, yet I’m calm in the cold,
Take me to the river where I’ll never grow old,
Down to the river where he carried me through

I wanna show you, show you where I fly
Wanna show you, show you where I fly….
From the cove of the company,
Cove of the company

In the shadow of my Mother, holding hands with my brother
Down into the river where the ice cuts new,
Weary is my body, yet I’m calm in the cold,
Take me to the river where I’ll never grow old,
In the shadow of my Mother, holding hands with my Brother,
Down to the river,
Oh, down to the river,
Down to the river where he carried me through
