How Mercy Looks From Here cover
04. Deep As It Is Wide [feat. Sheryl Crow, Eric Paslay]
Album: How Mercy Looks From Here
Artist: Amy Grant
         
 

There’s a place at the edge of the sky
Where there’s a love deep as it is wide
The weak are strong, the hungry are all fed
And there’s a breeze from the angels
flying over head
And there’s a path, a glorious light
That guides you up a mountain side
And at the top, if you could you’d cry
’Cause you’d see pure love for the very first time
Deep as it is wide
EVERY BREATH TAKING ME CLOSER
EVERY STEP LEADING TO PARADISE
THEY SAY THE FAITHFUL GET TO GO THERE
I BELIEVE THERE’S A LOVE
DEEP AS IT IS WIDE
I hear when you get to the river
You look back for the very last time
And when you cross, you get washed off forever
Hurry up boy, eternity’s on the other side
Deep as it is wide
CHORUS
Every nation, color and creed
Like grace pouring out, far as the eye can see
Singing praises up to a King
‘Cause He died For a crowd
Deep as it is wide
CHORUS

Written by Eric Paslay

Behind the Song:
"Eric, I have loved this song for years. In fact, it was my constant companion in the last months of my mother’s life. Thank you for allowing Sheryl and me to join you as we share this message of hope with everybody else." - Amy Grant
