The Boat Ashore
Woke up in the morning, and it felt like the black of night
Tumbled out of bed
Tripped on my Bible
Stumbled over the light
Blinded by the break of day, I shut my eyes
I was alone
Couldn't say my prayers
Good God almighty, where's my telephone?
And now I know
Now I know
Know what You meant when You told me You wanted to hold me
Hold me
(Take my hand and lead)
Hold me forever
(Walk this land with me)
Hold me and never
(I'll be there, don't leave)
Tell me you'll ever
(For forever)
Let me go
No, no I did not know
I did not understand the plan You had for me
And it isn't that I don't believeI do believe that You truly love me
Yeah, but how do I reciprocate when I know there's nothing good in me?
Say it's so
Say it so
Say it 'til I really hear it when You say, "Don't fear it
Let go"
Crash me
Wash me on Your shore
Drifted way too far from my moorings and more
Overboard the oars went
Relentless was the roll of the restless sea
Set me free from its treacherous shoals
Now that I have run this boat ashore, don't let me go
Now I know
Now I know I know like never before
You wait
You waited for me, and I know
Now I know
