Before the Flood
Did you know me before the flood
Was I gentle
Was I good
Did you know me before the flood
Did I know you

Did I invite you to my table
Did I give you shelter from the night
Or did I turn my back on you
Or did I cause you pain
Was it me who brought this rain

So I’ll beg you for forgiveness
as the wind screams
and the sky cries
Oh brother won’t you take my hand
as the waters start to rise

I love you brother
I pray it’s our souls he saves
I pray and beg forgiveness
And when the water drowns this world
I’ll still pray beneath the waves

Brother was my heart so ugly
Brother was my soul so stained
Brother did I turn my back on you
Oh father did I bring this rain

Did you know me before the flood
Was I lustfull
Was I proud
Did you know me before the flood
Did I know you
Did I raise my hand against you
Did you suffer long
Brother did I turn my back on you
Oh brother did I do you wrong





Did you know me before the flood
Did I worship idols
Did I bring my woman shame
Did you know me before the flood
Did I know you

Did I give you comfort
Did I keep you in my prayers
Or did I forget your name
Did I bring this curse upon us
Oh father did I bring this rain

Did I transgress a hundred times
Did I live a life of sin
Did I close the door on you my friend
Or did I let you in

Did I live a life son wrong
Did I tell so many lies
Brother won’t you take my hand
As the waters start to rise

Oh father will the devil take our souls
Will he keep us all as slaves
Oh father I pray only for forgiveness
And when the water drowns this world
I’ll still pray beneath the waves
