When I open up Your word I see an ancient flame burning through the ages It will never wax or wane When I gaze into Your heart I see unending love Flowing in your bloodstream through vessels wide as oceans Constant is Your love And steadfast is Your word Letters etched into the sky they cannot be removed Like aromas in the morning As the Son pierces the night Hemmed within the bow of love and with Your grace astern I'll cross the anxious waters In the vessel of Your promise Your covenant is sure Spoken never void Caught in the rapids of Your promise is the Safest place to be Lost in the ebb and flow of the voyage you set me on I trust the story You are writing Lord as wild as it may be I'm safe beneath Your wings I am swept away And here within the chaos I will stay Like a leaf swept beneath I'm in the undercurrent It pulls me out to sea And darkness is the only thing I see In waters deep the more completely I can feel your presence When the storm arrives rejoice for He's the Prince of Peace The gnashing of the sea: the instrument of victory Oh my God is for me I am not alone When the waves are roaring be reminded of the Lion
