Gm7 Eb F
[Verse 1]
Gm7 Eb
I pass the whelming flood
F Eb
That pours into this restless town
Gm7 Eb
Through the blinding fog
F Dm
That fills the air from sky to ground
Eb Gm
Beneath a midnight sky
F F7
That casts a shadow on these hills
Eb Gm
Hope - the only spark
F A#
That burns from deep within me still
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Eb Gm F
Winter has come; winter has come
Dm
Darkness is forcing its way through
Eb Gm F
But I'm not overrun; I'm not overrun
F7
'Cause I'm running into You
[Chorus 1]
Eb A#
As I make my way through this God-forsaking land
Eb A#
Watching devils laugh and drunkards clap their hands
Eb A#
Chilling winds pull me in and ask me for a dance
Eb F
But I run on past
Eb A#
Up the road as crooked as the devil's smile
Eb A#
Past the open fields where dogs and wolves run wild
Eb A#
And I tell myself, "In just another mile
Eb F
I'll be safe at last"
[Interlude]
Eb Gm F Dm
Eb Gm F
[Verse 2]
Gm7 Eb
I pass the gentle stream
F Eb
That whispers underneath my feet
Gm7 Eb
Through the silver dew
F Eb
That glimmers on both grass and leaves
Eb Gm
Beneath a midnight sky
F Dm
That sets the world alight with stars
Eb Gm
Peace - the brightest one
F A#
Sends its warmth into my heart
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Eb Gm F
Autumn has come; autumn has come
Dm
Sunlight is forcing its way through
Eb Gm F
And I am undone! I am undone!
F7
'Cause You're coming into view
[Chorus 2]
Eb A#
As I make my way through this God-beloved land
Eb A#
Watching angels laugh and children clap their hands
Eb A#
Gentle winds pull me in and ask me for a dance
Eb F
And we dance our last! We keep dancing!
Eb A#
Up the road as blessed as the devil's frown
Eb A#
Past the open fields where lions and lambs lie down
Eb A#
And I tell myself, "This is my final round
Eb F
And I'm not coming back"
[Bridge]
Eb Gm F
The seasons have come; the seasons have gone
F Dm
They've given this road a different hue
Eb Gm F
The winter and fall; I've walked through them all
F F7
But this road keeps leading me to You
Eb Gm F
The seasons have come; the seasons have gone
F Dm
They've given this road a different hue
Eb Gm F
The winter and fall; I've walked through them all
F F7
But this road keeps leading me to You
[Interlude]

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