Nevertheless — Selah Sound Collective (Psalm 106)

Verse 1 Down by the water where the red sea opened I held your promises between my teeth I was a girl who forgot the miracles I was a bride who traded love for grief The gold calf shining in the desert moonlight We danced around it till the music broke We built a kingdom out of our forgetting Then wondered why the heavens never spoke

Chorus Remember me Remember me I know I soon forgot But remember me Nevertheless Nevertheless Love that would not die When mine would not last

Verse 2 I sold my daughters to the evening idols I mingled in the nations of the strange I traded glory for a bronze-age shadow And called my ruin by another name And still you heard me in the iron country And still you listened when I could not pray You broke my captors into open weeping You called me kindness and you called me safe

Chorus Remember me Remember me I know I soon forgot But remember me Nevertheless Nevertheless Love that would not die When mine would not last

Bridge From everlasting to everlasting The sea divides, the sea divides And I am gathered from the nations Into the kindnesses I tried to hide From everlasting to everlasting

Chorus Remember me Remember me Though I had soon forgot Remember me Nevertheless Nevertheless The love that would not die When mine would not last Remember me

Outro Amen Amen Remember me
