When my hope runs low
And my thoughts follow
Where my fear would go
I'll hold on to you
I'll hold on to you
You weren't formed from dust like the rest of us
Weren't destined for the tomb
All life springs from you and from no one else
Your great escape is mine too
I'm in the sea
I'm drowning can't you see
I'm in the sea
I'm drowning can't you see
O, you of little faith
Why are you afraid?
You weren't formed from dust like the rest of us
Weren't destined for the tomb
All life springs from you and from no one else
Your great escape is mine too
When my weakness comes
Mounting like a wave with a monster's face
When the reaper comes
Knocking like a pecker on my coffin-cage
I'll hold on to you
I'll hold on to you
You weren't formed from dust like the rest of us
Weren't destined for the tomb
All life springs from you and from no one else
Your great escape is mine too
You weren't formed from dust like the rest of us
Weren't destined for the tomb
All life springs from you and from no one else
Your great escape is mine too
You begin
And never end
You begin
And never end
Every death I've died
Has made me more alive
And every tear I've cried
Is gathered in your eyes
