Dig

Jars Of Clay

I had a big idea, I had a crazy eye

I broke the sacred seal, I told a lazy lie

I've had my conscience bent, I've my patience tried

I've been up in desert and down by the riverside



Will the eagle fly if the sky's untrue?

Do the faithful sigh because they are so few?

Remember when I cried, remember when you knew?

Remember the look in your eyes, I know I do



And count the stars to measure time,

The earth is hard, the treasure fine

To the sea, I crawl on my knees



Feel it coming in, feel it going out

Water covers sin, blood covers doubt

So I begin again, again the healing bow

There was time that I might've surrendered, but not now



Consult the cards to measure mine,

The earth is hard, but the treasure fine

To the sea, I crawl on my knees



Consult the cards to measure mine,

The earth is hard, but the treasure fine

At the sea, I wait on my knees

At the sea, I wait on my knees

At the sea, I wait on my knees…
