[Verse 1]
Em7 C
I pass the whelming flood
D C
That pours into this restless town
Em7 C
Through the blinding fog
D Bm
That fills the air from sky to ground
C Em
Beneath a midnight sky
D D7
That casts a shadow on these hills
C Em
Hope - the only spark
D G
That burns from deep within me still
[Pre-Chorus 1]
C Em D
Winter has come; winter has come
Bm
Darkness is forcing its way through
C Em D
But I'm not overrun; I'm not overrun
D7
'Cause I'm running into You
[Chorus 1]
C G
As I make my way through this God-forsaking land
C G
Watching devils laugh and drunkards clap their hands
C G
Chilling winds pull me in and ask me for a dance
C D
But I run on past
C G
Up the road as crooked as the devil's smile
C G
Past the open fields where dogs and wolves run wild
C G
And I tell myself, "In just another mile
C D
I'll be safe at last"
[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
Em7 C
I pass the gentle stream
D C
That whispers underneath my feet
Em7 C
Through the silver dew
D C
That glimmers on both grass and leaves
C Em
Beneath a midnight sky
D Bm
That sets the world alight with stars
C Em
Peace - the brightest one
D G
Sends its warmth into my heart
[Pre-Chorus 2]
C Em D
Autumn has come; autumn has come
Bm
Sunlight is forcing its way through
C Em D
And I am undone! I am undone!
D7
'Cause You're coming into view
[Chorus 2]
C G
As I make my way through this God-beloved land
C G
Watching angels laugh and children clap their hands
C G
Gentle winds pull me in and ask me for a dance
C D
And we dance our last! We keep dancing!
C G
Up the road as blessed as the devil's frown
C G
Past the open fields where lions and lambs lie down
C G
And I tell myself, "This is my final round
C D
And I'm not coming back"
[Bridge]
C Em D
The seasons have come; the seasons have gone
D Bm
They've given this road a different hue
C Em D
The winter and fall; I've walked through them all
D D7
But this road keeps leading me to You
C Em D
The seasons have come; the seasons have gone
D Bm
They've given this road a different hue
C Em D
The winter and fall; I've walked through them all
D D7
But this road keeps leading me to You
[Interlude]

[Outro]
G Bm
God is my shepherd, He draws me close to His side
G Bm
He waters my soul in rivers I thought had all dried
G Bm
Yea, though I walk through valleys where my faith loses sight
G Bm
I will not fear for You are here, even in the night
