He Made the roof of the roof

Verse 1

Steep

Clutching jagged rocks

Grit and gray granite

Up

Heavy lungs

Ice biting skin

Blue peaks bowing down

Thin air tastes like silver

Hands are shaking

Heart is knocking hard

Breath clouds

Fading fast

Chorus

He made the roof of the world

He made the roof of the world

Endless sky

Endless sky

Below the eagle's flight

His handiwork

His handiwork

Verse 2

Quiet

Absolute

No crows crying here

Total peace

Heavy clouds beneath

Spreading like a cotton sea

Silver rivers ribbon through the green

Wilder than my dreams

He drew the maps

He carved the canyons

Glaciers

Slow

Ancient ice

Ancient stones

Chorus

He made the roof of the world

He made the roof of the world

Endless sky

Endless sky

Below the eagle's flight

His handiwork

His handiwork

Bridge

For the wolf

For the pine

For the water

Gifts from the summit

Flowing for the living

Built for the small

Built for the tall

Built for us all

I am nothing here

He is everything

Chorus

He made the roof of the world

He made the roof of the world

Endless sky

Endless sky

Below the eagle's flight

His handiwork

His handiwork

Outro

Stillness

Only wind

God's own mirror

Stretching wide

Far and wide
