[Verse 1]
A#m7 Gb
I pass the whelming flood
G# Gb
That pours into this restless town
A#m7 Gb
Through the blinding fog
G# Fm
That fills the air from sky to ground
Gb A#m
Beneath a midnight sky
G# G#7
That casts a shadow on these hills
Gb A#m
Hope - the only spark
G# C#
That burns from deep within me still
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Gb A#m G#
Winter has come; winter has come
Fm
Darkness is forcing its way through
Gb A#m G#
But I'm not overrun; I'm not overrun
G#7
'Cause I'm running into You
[Chorus 1]
Gb C#
As I make my way through this God-forsaking land
Gb C#
Watching devils laugh and drunkards clap their hands
Gb C#
Chilling winds pull me in and ask me for a dance
Gb G#
But I run on past
Gb C#
Up the road as crooked as the devil's smile
Gb C#
Past the open fields where dogs and wolves run wild
Gb C#
And I tell myself, "In just another mile
Gb G#
I'll be safe at last"
[Interlude]

Gb A#m G#
[Verse 2]
A#m7 Gb
I pass the gentle stream
G# Gb
That whispers underneath my feet
A#m7 Gb
Through the silver dew
G# Gb
That glimmers on both grass and leaves
Gb A#m
Beneath a midnight sky
G# Fm
That sets the world alight with stars
Gb A#m
Peace - the brightest one
G# C#
Sends its warmth into my heart
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Gb A#m G#
Autumn has come; autumn has come
Fm
Sunlight is forcing its way through
Gb A#m G#
And I am undone! I am undone!
G#7
'Cause You're coming into view
[Chorus 2]
Gb C#
As I make my way through this God-beloved land
Gb C#
Watching angels laugh and children clap their hands
Gb C#
Gentle winds pull me in and ask me for a dance
Gb G#
And we dance our last! We keep dancing!
Gb C#
Up the road as blessed as the devil's frown
Gb C#
Past the open fields where lions and lambs lie down
Gb C#
And I tell myself, "This is my final round
Gb G#
And I'm not coming back"
[Bridge]
Gb A#m G#
The seasons have come; the seasons have gone
G# Fm
They've given this road a different hue
Gb A#m G#
The winter and fall; I've walked through them all
G# G#7
But this road keeps leading me to You
Gb A#m G#
The seasons have come; the seasons have gone
G# Fm
They've given this road a different hue
Gb A#m G#
The winter and fall; I've walked through them all
G# G#7
But this road keeps leading me to You

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