Sometimes I've sailed the breeze, shot down planes on an empty beach
Walked a mile on hands and knees, been shackled to this dead end street
Sometimes I've led the way, over valleys through crusades
Held a treasure, then let it go, there's more to life, then bury gold
Like a higher love, that comforts me
Like a higher love, that rescued me
Sometimes I've been the road, cracks appear on heavy load
Heard choir bells ringing in the night, saw the world in a different light
With a higher love, that rescued me
With a higher love, that comforts me
Like the delta blues, on the radio, like rolling thunder, soft red glow
Like wildflowers at sunrise, like diamonds in clear blue eyes
Like a moth flying through the flame, like the power, like the power of change
A higher love, has rescued me
A higher love, comforts me
A higher love cradles me
Like a river flowing to the sea
Like a trembling heart, on a bending knee
A higher love, has set me free
Like a river flowing to the sea
A higher love, has set me free
