Capo 4
G
Deep is the river that I have to cross
Em D
Heavy the weight on my shoulder
G
I have discovered how great is the cost
Em D
Of trying alone to cross over
C Em D C
I try and I try but the current's too strong
Em D C
It's pulling me under and my strength is gone
Em D
Don't leave me stranded
Chorus:
G Em D
Rescue me, my God and my King,
Em C G D
Water is rising and I cannot breathe,
G Em D
Wrap your arms all around me and
Em C G D Em C G D
Carry me over (rescue me) [Carry me over]
G
There is a bridge that is easy to cross
Em D
When all of our burdens are lifted
G
Peace is the land that is waiting for us
Em D
Lord, give me faith to believe it
C Em D C
Cause I'm in a storm but I'm willing to fight
Em D C Em D
I'll overcome and I will not die with You by my side
[Chorus]
G Em D
I will sail over the oceans and
G Em D
High over the mountains and
G Em D
Soar up to the Heavens
C D
Here is my hand is my heart and my soul and my mind
[Chorus]
G Em D
Rescue me, my God and my King,
Em C G D
You are the only one who can save me
G Em D
Wrap your arms all around me and
Em C G D
Carry me over (rescue me)
Em C G D
Carry me over (rescue me)
Em C G D
Carry me over (rescue me)
