i was running 'round broken-hearted
i couldn't last falling apart and
leaving me there in my shame
leaving me fighting my pain
but you made a better way
i'm held by the father above
called out of the desert and drowned in the power of love
ain't no grave got a hold on me
you're showing me all of my life in a new light
and you could've run away
leaving me there in my shame
leaving me fighting my pain
but you made a better way
i'm held by the father above
called out of the desert and drowned in the power of love
ain't no grave got a hold on me
preacher told me the good
went away down deep in the river blue
preacher told me the good
and ever since my heart met you
i'm held by the father above
called out of the desert and drowned in the power of love
ain't no grave got a hold on me
ain't no grave got a hold on me
