"Come hell or highwater"
To go through with something no matter how bad things get. Biblical: hell we all understand, not a good place to be. Highwater, I'd guess a reference to the Flood, when it rained for 40 days and 40 nights, and the water covered all the surfaces of the earth. Also not a good situation, and one which God promised never again to create.
