A Mighty Host Lyrics

I still remember when I saw her

There as she wandered in the garden

Standing a stone's throw from her mother

There in the hazy afternoon

And I could hear a hallelujah-llelujah

Like wedding bells all silver gold

And oh I felt it there and then I still do

Her smile a-rushing through my soul

Whoa, she's awesome as a mighty host

She's an army with its banners flown

Now who is this who shines forth as the dawn

Clear as the moon and bright as sunbeam songs

She's honey-sweet, oh and she's red-wine strong

Oh, many waters cannot quench this love

Do you remember all the good times

When we were countin' every dime

Oh we were poor as honest salesmen

Thirteen hour days, not much to show.

You always told me you that you felt so rich then

We always kept each other warm

Didn't we feast upon the fat things a love like

Whisky and songs around the hearth

Whoa, she's awesome as a mighty host

She's an army with its banners flown

Now who is this who shines forth as the dawn

Clear as the moon and bright as sunbeam songs

She's honey-sweet, oh and she's red-wine strong

Oh, many waters cannot quench this love

Weren't we fruitful as a plum tree

Better than trips to sandy shores

Give me the sound of all our children

These rough and tumble afternoons

This life the Lord has given us oh splendor

And when I'm dying on my bed

Oh, God Almighty let me hear them a chorus

Of all my people singing Psalms

With ragged breath I'll sing along

Whoa, she's awesome as a mighty host

She's an army with its banners flown

Now who is this who shines forth as the dawn

Clear as the moon and bright as sunbeam songs

She's honey-sweet, oh and she's red-wine strong

Oh, many waters cannot quench this love

Oh, many waters cannot quench this love

Oh, many waters cannot quench this love

Oh, many waters cannot quench this love
