I am a wave upon the sea

The wind catches me and throws me

To a rocky beach

Dashing me to pieces

I am scattered on the sand

Then gathered back again



I am a wave upon the sea

Clinging to the surface

Above the waters of the deep

Where the voice of quiet

Calls out to me

From the ocean floor

But I keep rushing for the shore



I can hear the deep

Calling out to me

It's a siren song of peace

And I long to be

Swallowed up

And swept into the deep



I am a wave upon the sea

Someday soon

The tide will take me

Deeper underneath

Where the wind cannot break me

I'll be sinking in the flood

Completely taken by His love



Oh I can hear the deep

Calling out to me

It's a siren song of peace

And I long to be

Swallowed up

And swept into the deep



And to the people

Who are stranded on the land

I'm reaching out my hand



Can you hear the deep

Calling you to sea

It's a siren song of peace

And don't you long to be

Swallowed up

And swept into the deep

Come follow me

Be swallowed by the deep
