Grace Disguised by Darkness

I've felt their lives slip through my fingers

Now I watch them circle the drain

With breath like the torrent (THEY SINK SINK)

To the bottom

I've wasted so many chances

My efforts' not a drop in the barrel

With a body like a boulder (I SINK SINK)

To the bottom

I've shown my teeth and have had them kicked in one too many times

In my yearning He split the rock and the water gushed forth

A voice keeps yelling a voice keeps yelling

"This is where your proud waves end"

My fingers trace lines on the surface I'm consumed

The sinking feeling the sinking feeling

"This is where your proud waves end"

I take my first step I'm thrown over the edge

I TRIED TO WALK ON THE WATER BUT NOW I JUST SWIM

They slipped through my fingers

Now I watch them circle the drain

With breath like the torrent (THEY SINK SINK)

To the bottom

I've wasted so many chances

My efforts' not a drop in the barrel

With a body like a boulder (I SINK SINK)

To the bottom

I scream your name

Are you outside of your wrath

Oh God I scream your name

And amongst the pile of dead

I see a light split the water from the heavens

And I feel God glowing inside me

My heart SHAKES with the music of the spheres

I no longer tremble in fear

For Redemption has found me

And in Redemption comes the overflow

of peace
