O That I Would Be The Sea

Lord that you would deepen me.

Whatever your will, let it be,

O that I would be the sea.

Whenever it storms, let me roll,

Like the high seas, let rage my soul.

When it rains, let me catch the tears,

Let me swallow the whole of every fear.

Like waves of the ocean, let me flow,

Create in me life; let me glow.

Let me reflect the light of your sun

And then the moon once night has begun.

On the surface, let me be still,

Let me reveal the peace in your will.

Beneath the water, make me profound,

Deep like the place where wisdom resounds.

O that I would be the sea,

Lord that you would deepen me.

Whatever your will, let it be,

O that I would be the sea.
