The Great Flood
O how great was the flood
That washed over me
Like a kiss between two lovers
Were your hands upon my feet
O how great was the flood
That passed my lips unsung
Like a newborn babe's first taste of life
It danced on my tongue
O how great was the flood
That fell from your side
Like a knife into a mother's chest
When her only child dies
O how great was the flood
That swelled in this sea
When the water rose it took my breath
But You gave it back to me
When the water rose it took my breath
But You gave it back to me
O how great was the flood
That was poured out on my head
Giving love to what Love had brought forth
And life to what was dead
That washed over me
Like a kiss between two lovers
Were your hands upon my feet
O how great was the flood
That passed my lips unsung
Like a newborn babe's first taste of life
It danced on my tongue
O how great was the flood
That fell from your side
Like a knife into a mother's chest
When her only child dies
O how great was the flood
That swelled in this sea
When the water rose it took my breath
But You gave it back to me
When the water rose it took my breath
But You gave it back to me
O how great was the flood
That was poured out on my head
Giving love to what Love had brought forth
And life to what was dead
