This song is based on Titus 3:3-7; Ephesians 2
Titus 3:3-7 – For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.
But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appea...
[Verse 1]
Knee deep in the swelling seas without a thought
Or realization of my dying need
I cannot keep out this grim disease
For it has plagued and overtaken all
All our dying breed
[Refrain]
Waist deep in the ocean’s sleep
Without a thought or realization of my dying need
(I cannot) can’t keep what I didn’t reap
For I see justice coming swiftly for
For every thought and deed
[Chorus]
None had taught
Such wickedness from the start
In deed, in thought, my heart was tearing apart
In vain I fought
Hoping this pain would depart
Still no one could tame this wild heart
[Verse 2]
Lawless and reckless, my will and my art
“Flawless” I profess, yet wicked in heart
Lawless and reckless, my will and my art
“Flawless” I profess, yet wicked in heart
A liar, a thief is what had marked my soul
Thought lying and stealing would make me feel whole
[Refrain]
Neck deep in the water’s grave
Without a thought or realization of my dying need
(I cannot) can’t keep back the coming wave
For I see it coming swiftly for
For which I cry and plead
[Chorus]
None had taught
Such wickedness from the start
In deed, in thought
My heart was tearing apart
In vain I fought
Hoping this pain would depart
Still no one could tame this wild heart
[Bridge]
The ocean’s deep and thick
My lungs are filling quick
I scream and flail and kick
For my heart is truly sick
I feel the end is near
Choked up by waves of fear
Distant, You seem unclear
Until the Savior nears
[Pre-Chorus]
Cut through the night
My curse and my plight
Blinded by light
Holy in white
My heart didn’t fight
My heart didn’t fight
Crushed by the sight
Crushed
[Chorus 2]
Shame had taught
Of all my sin in disgrace
In love You sought
To bring me to Your embrace
My life was bought
By God in taking my place
For none could show
Such mercy, love and grace
Grace!
[Outro]
My heart didn’t fight
My words at a loss
Crushed by the sight
The sight of the cross
My heart didn’t fight
My words at a loss
Crushed by the sight
The sight of the cross
