DEEP WATERS [Up To My Neck] | Official Lyric Video | Joel Howard
Save me O God for the waters
Have come up to my neck!
I sink in deep mire
Where there is no foothold
I have come into deep waters
And the flood sweeps over me
Save me O God for the waters
Have come up to my neck!
I am weary with my crying out
My throat is parched
My eyes grow dim
With waiting for my God
More in number than the
Hairs of my head
Are those who hate me
Without cause
Mighty are those who
Would destroy me
Those who would
Tear me with lies
What I did not steal
Must I now restore?
O God, you know my folly
The wrongs that I have done
Are not hidden from you
Save me O God for the waters
Have come up to my neck!
Let not those who hope in you
Be put to shame through me
O God of Israel
For it is for your sake
That I have borne reproach
That dishonor has covered my face
I have become a stranger to my brothers
And an alien to my mother's sons
