Dig Lyrics - 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 had my patience tried 

I've been up in the desert and down by the river side 

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 kneeling bow 

There was a time that I might have surrendered 

But not now 

Consult the cards to measure mine 

The earth is hard, the treasure fine 

To the sea I crawl on my knees 

Consult the cards to measure my 

The earth is hard, 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
