Lyrics

Dusting off my knees as I rise
Hurts to fall no matter how many times
Nothing as far as I see
Just a wasteland where the rivers used to be

Here the spiders bite, the scorpions sting
But You make me brave through every thing

Mojave, Staring at the desert in front of me
Knowing You won’t abandon me, You always find me
Mojave, I was blind but now I see
The wasteland’s not what it used to be
Beyond Mojave, Mojave

Suddenly everything stops
No wind is blowing, the silence growing
It’s no peaceful relief
The sound of anxious waiting

Then the storm clouds break and the rain pours down
Brings the dead to life, the decay is gone

Mojave, Staring at the desert in front of me
Knowing You won’t abandon me, You always find me
Mojave, I was blind but now I see
The wasteland’s not what it used to be
Beyond Mojave, Mojave

Oh I’ve feared change, and pain
Afraid so long of the cleansing rain
It led me here
You don’t want me trapped in fear
Move on, fight through
Find the strength to trust in You

Mojave, Staring at the desert in front of me
Knowing You won’t abandon me, You always find me
Mojave, I was blind but now I see
The wasteland’s not what it used to be
Beyond Mojave, Mojave
