Oceans
He stood in the gap and paid the price … to process the trauma he started writing this raw but beautiful poetry out of a place of profound pain, loss, and suffering, a cry of anguish, yes, but infused with a hope that can only come from a stubborn, scrappy faith. I knew I had to try to translate this into music; hope I did it some justice. This song is the first of a series, God willing.

Don’t cheat yourself
Take time to grieve
Take time to be broken
Wrap your arms
Around the sinking stone
Mourn all that was
Embrace the deep
Your shield now lies broken
Through shattered armor
Feel heart break out from stone
Fountains may cease to flow
But with tears you pan for gold
Don’t cheat the world
‘Cause you know
There’s stories to be told
Build love
Build life
Find grace in all her guises
Give love
Give life
One day she may surprise you
Surrender justice
To the heavens
Her scales now hang broken
Lay down your arms
And dream on Jacob’s stone
Don’t wipe away
The tears of God
How vast is his ocean
Spread your arms
Around the anchor stone
Fountains may cease to flow
But with tears you pan for gold
Don’t cheat the world
‘Cause there's stories
Stories to be told
Build love
Build life
Find grace in all her guises
Give love
Give life
One day she may surprise you
Chase down elusive embers
Buried deep within the pain
Strike the spark, shock your heart,
Dispel the dark again
Chase down elusive embers
Buried deep within the pain
Strike the spark, shock your heart,
Dispel the dark again
Build love
Build life
Find grace in all her forms
Give love
Give life
Let her find you through the storm
Let her find you…
