Maybe I don't have the strength
Maybe I don't have the faith
You brought me here in 40 years
I know this trip should take a week

I've shed my tears and shed my blood
Been held ransom by the flood
The winter steals my songs away
In all of this I come undone

When you walk through the water I will be with you
When you pass through the river the waves will not over take you
When you walk on the fire the flames they will not touch you
You are mine, you are mine, you are mine

I've been a child I've been a slave
I've grown bitter and learned to pray
Packed my bags and started back
The cost was just too high to pay

When you walk through the water I will be with you
When you pass through the river the waves will not over take you
When you walk on the fire the flames they will not touch you
You are mine, you are mine
