Lyrics
Erosion
Cold as a stone with feet of clay?I?
Blown by the wind and swept away?I?
An avalanche of elements
Expose this mountainside
A landslide of emotion
Rending furrows deep and wide
Close to the edge with feet of dust?I?
Tarnished by time and turned to rust?I?
The earth begin to crumble
From the banks on either side
An onslaught of erosion
Melting shoreline into tide
Chorus: And I am washed by your sea of grace
Submersed in shadows that hide your lovely face
When the morning comes I hope to find my place
(of peace last time thru) ? in spite of this erosion.
Bridge: Sorrow lasts a moment and weeping for a night; But joy comes in the morning riding in on wings of light?
