Crossing The Water Lyrics

Bill Staines Crossing The Water

Chorus: We are crossing the waters out whole lives through,
We are making a passage that is straight and true,
Every Heart's a vessel,
Every dream's a light,
Shining through the darkness of the blackest night.
Well, there's is no shallow water and not but love to keep
Us safely from the dangers and the devils of the deep.
But with every breath within us,
we search forever more,
To find some peaceful harbor on that far off shore.

Chorus:

For some it is a glory, for some it is a game
For some it is a story filled with emptiness and pain,
But as rising winds in chorus,
we search for steady ground,
There is only that before us, there cab be no turning round.

Chorus:

Oh, there is no other journey that will ever be the same,
No second change horizon that will call you by your name.
So when welling waves wash o'er you
and the stormy winds they drive
Give your heart a song, sing it loud and long,
keep your dreams alive.
