Old School Tunes

This column is dedicated to those old songs that makes us remember certain somethings from our "rich" past, when we were once nymphets (flashback que and... action!) and for this issue I picked this song because this was the very first Christian Song that i heard that i actually dig, no offense to other Christian bands but, to tell you the truth i didn't even know this is a Christian song until i listened intently to the lyrics because for me the song was hard-edged and cool, and until know whenever i listen to it, i still remain mesmerized... and i also know for a fact, that the maker of this website is somewhat tied to this song too so, i won't delay it much longer here it is, ponder and weep..

Flood (Jars of Clay)

Rain rain on my face
Hasn't stopped raining for days
My world is in flood
Slowly I become one of the mud

But if i can't swim after forty days
And my mind is crushed by the crushing waves
Lift me up so high that i cannot fall
Lift me on
Lift me up when i'm falling
Lift me up, i'm weak and i'm dying
Lift me up, i need you to hold me
Lift me up, keep me from drowning again

Downpour on my soul
Splashing in the ocean i'm loosing control
Dark sky all around
Can't feel my feet touching the ground

But if i can't swim after forty days
And my mind is crushed by the crushing waves
Lift me up so high that i cannot fall
Lift me on
Lift me up when i'm falling
Lift me up, i'm weak and i'm dying
Lift me up, i need you to hold me
Lift me up, keep me from drowning again

Calm storms that drenched my eyes
And dry the stream still it flows
Casting down our ways as if
And guilt thats overflowing

But if i can't swim after forty days
And my mind is crushed by the crushing waves
Lift me up so high that i cannot fall
Lift me on
Lift me up when i'm falling
Lift me up, i'm weak and i'm dying
Lift me up, i need you to hold me
Lift me up, keep me from drowning again...
