Water Is Wide - Maura O'Connell lyrics
Higher Ground
The Water Is Wide/Deep River
The water is wide
I cannot cross over
and neither have
I wings to fly
build me a boat
that will carry two
and both shall row
my love and I
There is a ship
and she sails the sea
she's loaded deep
as deep can be
but not so deep
as the love I'm in
I know not how
I sink or swim
deep river
my home is over jordan
deep river
lord
I want to cross over into campground
deep river
my home is over jordan
mmm, deep river, lord
I want to cross over into campground
oh don't you want to go
to that gospel feast
that promised land
where all is peace
for deep river, lord
I want to cross over into campground
the water is wide
I cannot cross over
and neither have
I wings to fly
build me a boat
that will carry two
and both shall row
and both shall row
and both shall row
my love and I
