[Verse 1] Deep waters rising River of wisdom flows Few sounds, but steady Life in what you know [Chorus] Words… cut or heal Words… break or build Carry the weight of the heart Silent but never still [Verse 2] Fool starts the quarrel Calling the blows Tongue sparks the fire Where the anger grows [Chorus] Words… cut or heal Words… break or build Carry the weight of the heart Silent but never still [Extended Bridge – Proverbs 18 Breakdown] Words hold life, words hold death They build a house, they steal the breath The fool runs headlong into strife, Pride brings ruin, wisdom brings life. The tongue divides, the tongue defends, Soft speech can heal, harsh speech offends. The poor cry out, but find no friend, A brother stands close to the end. Fortress in wealth will never last, But the Lord’s name is a tower, steadfast. [Chorus] Words… cut or heal Words… break or build Carry the weight of the heart Silent but never still [Outro] Words… (fading) Deep waters… Still flowing…
