Josiah - One Last Song lyrics

The ship was sinking; we were drinking, singing one last song,

Casting our gold into the ocean.

You grabbed a bucket, started screaming, "Come on, come on",

Lets try and slow the downward motion.

Back in the kingdom, we were kings and queens and Oh, so strong

That God himself could not contain us.

We never thought we'd be the shorter end of sword and gun.

Now god himself could never save us.

Waves of silver, waves of gold

Are coming down to take me,

And separate my body from my soul

And Jesus either leaves or takes me.

Hopes of heaven, fears of hell

And what's the chance I'll make it.

When my other plans have failed,

And i tried so hard to fake it.

We started sinking, drinking water from the open sea

Losing our bodies to the ocean.

You grabbed my hand and started screaming, "rescue me"

Together fight the downward motion.

Back in the kingdom we were kings and queens and Oh, so free

That god himself just had to show us.

We never thought we'd be the colder side of land and sea

But he's the only one who knows us.

Waves of silver, waves of gold

Are coming down to take me,

Separate my body from my soul

And Jesus either leaves or takes me.

Hopes of heaven, fears of hell

And what's the chance I'll make it.

When all my other plans have failed,

And I tried so hard to fake it.
