[Verse 1]
Bm7 G
I pass the whelming flood
A G
That pours into this restless town
Bm7 G
Through the blinding fog
A F#m
That fills the air from sky to ground
G Bm
Beneath a midnight sky
A A7
That casts a shadow on these hills
G Bm
Hope - the only spark
A D
That burns from deep within me still
[Pre-Chorus 1]
G Bm A
Winter has come; winter has come
F#m
Darkness is forcing its way through
G Bm A
But I'm not overrun; I'm not overrun
A7
'Cause I'm running into You
[Chorus 1]
G D
As I make my way through this God-forsaking land
G D
Watching devils laugh and drunkards clap their hands
G D
Chilling winds pull me in and ask me for a dance
G A
But I run on past
G D
Up the road as crooked as the devil's smile
G D
Past the open fields where dogs and wolves run wild
G D
And I tell myself, "In just another mile
G A
I'll be safe at last"
[Interlude]
G Bm A F#m
G Bm A
[Verse 2]
Bm7 G
I pass the gentle stream
A G
That whispers underneath my feet
Bm7 G
Through the silver dew
A G
That glimmers on both grass and leaves
G Bm
Beneath a midnight sky
A F#m
That sets the world alight with stars
G Bm
Peace - the brightest one
A D
Sends its warmth into my heart
[Pre-Chorus 2]
G Bm A
Autumn has come; autumn has come
F#m
Sunlight is forcing its way through
G Bm A
And I am undone! I am undone!
A7
'Cause You're coming into view
[Chorus 2]
G D
As I make my way through this God-beloved land
G D
Watching angels laugh and children clap their hands
G D
Gentle winds pull me in and ask me for a dance
G A
And we dance our last! We keep dancing!
G D
Up the road as blessed as the devil's frown
G D
Past the open fields where lions and lambs lie down
G D
And I tell myself, "This is my final round
G A
And I'm not coming back"
[Bridge]
G Bm A
The seasons have come; the seasons have gone
A F#m
They've given this road a different hue
G Bm A
The winter and fall; I've walked through them all
A A7
But this road keeps leading me to You
G Bm A
The seasons have come; the seasons have gone
A F#m
They've given this road a different hue
G Bm A
The winter and fall; I've walked through them all
A A7
But this road keeps leading me to You
[Interlude]

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