vs. 1
God of sea and sand
God of waves and wind
I praise You on this shore

vs. 2
Every horizon
Wraps earth and sky
and Your arms hold me close

chorus-
I just awe when the
ocean rolls to
some invisible beat

I just awe when I
hear Your voice 'cause
You're walking next to me

And I just can't get over the awe

vs. 4
Sun-touched on this beach
splashing my family
and God is laughing

vs. 5
Moon-struck on this night
million stars fill the sky
and God's humming

Choirs of angels, salvation's song
Heaven would miss Him while He was gone
Love so high could only belong
'Neath the heart in Virgin womb

Eternal God, Ancient of Days
Swaddled in cloth, sleeps in the hay
Bethlehem star, the Father's way
To reach from Heav'n and hold the Babe

Oh, my soul, I will lift Him up
The Lord has done great things for us
Emmanuel, God is with us

Infinite God became infant
He who gave all became gift
Enlarge my heart, I welcome Him
Emmanuel, God is with us

Jesus' first steps, holy toddle
He learned to walk so I'd follow
Take me to the end of humble
Holy, holy Emmanuel

There Is A Way (Isaiah 30:12)

Out of my troubles,

There is a way.

Out of my sorrows,

There is a way.

Jesus has promised,

He is the way-

He gives light to see,

He directs my feet,

And shows me the way.

Through every valley,

There is a way.

Through every wild sea,

There is a way.

Jesus has promised,

He is the way-

He gives light to see,

He directs my feet,

And shows me the way.

Help me to hear You,

Confusion’s loud.

Help me stay near You,

Your voice surrounds.

Jesus is faithful,

The promised way-

He gives light to see,

He directs my feet,

And shows me the way.

Your Love Is (Psalm 19:1-6)

Your love is soft like the moon when it’s full

Giving full hope within

Your love is strong like the tide when it pulls

Washing me from all sin

Your love is wild like the storms when they blow

Cleansing me from my fears

You answer my heart’s deep need for Your love

To know that You are near

Your love is high, deep, wide

Rising over your Bride

Your love is high, deep, wide

I’m filled with Your love, Christ

You blush with love for me every morning

That’s why the dawn is rose

You yearn with love for me every eve’ning

That’s why the sunset glows

You shine with love for me in the daytime

That’s why the sun burns bright

You cover me with a blanket of stars

That’s why they wink at night

Your love is high, deep, wide

Rising over your Bride

Your love is high, deep, wide

I’m filled with Your love, Christ

My Risen Lord

You came, My Lord,

My Redeemer, to save,

You reign, My King,

Over the grave;

You died and descended,

Then away rolled the stone,

You took the keys in Your hand,

You’ve taken the throne!

You’re coming one day,

The clouds You’ll blow away,

How great a shout there will be;

Like the thund’rous whirling

Of a tornado swirling,

A hurricane bursting over the sea;

On the wind ‘neath Your wing,

Like an eagle I’ll soar,

Rising, I’ll rise with my risen Lord!

You’re the Root of David,

The Vine of Life,

The Bright Morning Star,

Heaven’s pure light;

You’re the Alpha, Omega,

The Beginning, the End,

And surely and quickly

You’re coming again!

You’re coming one day,

You’ll blow the clouds away,

How great a shout there will be;

Like the thund’rous whirling

Of a tornado swirling,

A hurricane bursting over the sea;

On the wind ‘neath Your wing,

Like an eagle I’ll soar,

Rising, I’ll rise with my risen Lord!
