Tidal Wave

Your love is a great ocean
An ocean reaching onto forever
As far as the east is from the west
Your love rages and crashes
Yes, Your love rages intensely

Your love rages for me
Your jealousy swells all around me
Your frustrated screams thunder in my ears
If I’m so desperate for You
If I so desire You,
Then why do I ignore You?
Why are my ears so deaf to Your screams?

You clamp Your hands over Your ears
You squeeze Your eyes shut
As my lukewarm worship burns within You
It races like fire through Your blood
Pulsing pain within Your heart
Lightening pulses within You,
Striking me in my indifference

Your tears plunge
Deep into the ocean of Your love
Tossing me, swallowing me
Within the stormy seas
You want to consume me
Desperately You crave to drown me in Your love
I cry out in agony
I spit my worship in Your face
Struggling, fighting,
Keeping my head above the waters

O’ I know I need to surrender
To sink, to dive
Deeper and deeper
Till I’m consumed by your love.

O’ I know, I know,
I need to give in, to give up
To lose control
But sometimes the fear is so great
Sometimes the fear is so huge
That I need your tidal wave to take me under.

Take me under, take me under
Crash over me
Wash over me
Drown me in your tidal wave

Push me deep into the ocean of your love
I want to breathe it in
To swallow your love
Till I’m drenched in your adoration
Completely one with you

Caught in the flood of Your mercy
Washed in the blood of Your grace
I am overwhelmed by You
Tossed by Your tidal wave
Thrown by waves of Your love
I cry out, ‘Cause I’m desperate.
I’m desperate for Your love.
