Cling to the Cross

[Verse 1]
The river runs wild
Pulling at my feet
Clouds gather heavy
The light retreats
Oh
The winds howl sharp
Tearing through my chest
But I know in the storm
I am still blessed
[Chorus]
I’ll cling to the cross
When the shadows grow tall
When the ground gives way
And I start to fall
Through the darkest night
Where hope seems lost
I’ll find my strength
I’ll cling to the cross
[Verse 2]
The road turns jagged
Cuts deep and steep
Dreams left in ruins
The nights I weep
But Your hands hold firm
They won’t let me go
Through the fire
Through the flood
This I know
[Prechorus]
You never leave
You never change
In every sorrow
You remain
[Chorus]
I’ll cling to the cross
When the shadows grow tall
When the ground gives way
And I start to fall
Through the darkest night
Where hope seems lost
I’ll find my strength
I’ll cling to the cross
[Bridge]
When the waves rise high
When the thunder roars
You are the anchor
You are the shore
When my heart grows faint
When my faith feels small
You whisper softly
“I’ve carried it all.”
