Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Hot sun on my neck
Ash in my boots
I haul that pack
Till my shoulders cut loose
The ridge is burning
The creek runs thin
I hear that siren
And run right in
Little shoes on the bank
A hand in the reeds
Lord, save these babies
Lord, hear me please
[Pre-Chorus]
I fell to my knees
In the black of the smoke
Said, Jesus, guide me
Don’t let me let go
[Chorus]
Christ in the canyon
Jesus, stay near
Hold my hard heart
When the water’s not clear
Christ in the canyon
Jesus, carry me through
I’m still standing
By the grace of You
[Verse 2]
Back on the line
With the dusk in my eyes
Same old hunger
Same old fires
Then I saw her down by
The feed store lights
Blue-eyed girl
With a denim-white smile
She laughed like rain
On a dry fence row
Said, you look like a man
Who’s been through the smoke
[Pre-Chorus]
I said, I’m worn out
But I’m not alone
She took my hand
And she led me home
[Chorus]
Christ in the canyon
Jesus, stay near
Hold my hard heart
When the water’s not clear
Christ in the canyon
Jesus, carry me through
I’m still standing
By the grace of You
[Bridge]
We said our vows
By a chapel door
No crown but mercy
No need for more
And when the sirens call
I still go back
But I come to you
Through heaven’s track
[Final Chorus]
Christ in the canyon
Jesus, stay near
Hold my hard heart
When the water’s not clear
Christ in the canyon
Jesus, carry me through
I found my salvation
And a bride in blue
Christ in the canyon
Jesus, carry me through
I’m still standing
By the grace of You
