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
