Deeper Than Oceans (feat. Sarah Jay)

Verse 1

We avoid and exclude hurting people because they are different or struggling

We give up on praying for people when they are at their worst

yet God is always at His best and He can still reach them

We need to encourage these people instead of pushing these people away See

there are so many applauded pastors who went through gang life

lust drugs addiction and we rejoice to hear that they have a testimony of being

saved from all of that And God used people in their lives who

didn't give up on praying for them who urgently and consistently pursued them with the love of Christ and the gospel of His salvation

Her deep sea green eyes see that ocean blue She loves her hometown but wants an ocean

view A shack on the sand would nicely do She smiles in the day but happy

nights are few She works late to get paid waiting tables for tips

She dreams of leaving this place she's planning her trips

Far from content distant from joy Can't find what she wants in any

man or boy So she toys with the notion that there's no hope

Dozes off the TV after lighting a smoke About to croak

dying by design Her mind stays awake all night and won't recline

Thoughts invade and raid and choices are made Pain shows his ugly face

through that razor blade He craves attention and she's willing to give it She

only has one life but she's scared to live it The storm rages

Hook

stronger than ever before Your word is the lighthouse shining from the shore This love

is my anchor steady and sure

Deeper than oceans I need nothing more I

Verse 2

need nothing more He wakes up alone smelling like an ashtray And he

needs the needle before he starts his day Can't find his way

losing direction When it comes to God's love he feels like the exception That it wasn't

really ever even meant for him Wishing that a single sign would be

sent to him Tears cascade down his face as he prays

God why'd you have to make me this way Why are things all

wrong It's the same old song I

go to the youth group but I

don't belong Because I have a past and I

fight addiction Try to talk to some people but no one listens

They brush me off frostbitten shoulder This tunnel is dark and I'm getting

colder Wishing I was older and past all this Then maybe so called

Hook

saints would look past all this The storm rages stronger than ever before

Your word is the lighthouse shining from the shore This love is my anchor

steady and sure Deeper than oceans I

Verse 3

need nothing more I need nothing You see my heart bleeds for the broken

hearted To those on their own far from where they started

Renegades runaways and the faith departed Outcasts left out and always forgotten And for those

who hate church all because of the people There's no one like my God

he has no equal Though a pastor might fail and forget your name

God knows the hairs on your head and he built your frame

Loves you the same yesterday today Hebrews 13 8

Jesus doesn't change So let him replace all of those who've wronged you

Spend each moment with you yes he longs to Hold you so close

through those lonely nights But you've got to take hold he only invites

He's a gentle man and won't force his hand But you can see from the start that you've

been in his plans The storm rages stronger than ever before

Your word is the lighthouse shining from the shore This love is my anchor

steady and sure Deeper than oceans I

need nothing more The storm rages stronger than ever before

Your word is the lighthouse shining from the shore This love is my anchor

steady and sure Deeper than oceans I

need nothing more

I need nothing more

I need nothing more I

need nothing more I need nothing more

I need nothing more

Nothing more I need I
