The Tide

Alone we float Eyes fixed on the night sky Dimly lit by faint starlight We all sing of rescue and freedom All our tunes are solitary cries You calm restless seas Raging on to capsize me I'm desperate in need Oh sweet Grace come rescue me Like the tide drifting in on dry sand My thoughts are drowning You away My heart calls in desperation With a voice that's begging You to stay That You calm restless seas Raging on to capsize me I'm desperate in need Oh sweet Grace come rescue me Oh, we thought we could hide We thought we could run away So we boarded ship and set sail To see the tide blow us way off course And all the while You were waiting To take Your prodigal sons home Such grace we've never known You're what drives The melody we sing to open skies You put this song in my soul
