Late at night, I know You’re here
I call Your name, I shed a tear
To see Your face, to hear Your voice
I’d die for You if I had the choice
In the air, I see a flap
But I’m afraid to peel it back
I’d see Your face, I’d know Your name
I’d be consumed in the billowing flame
You are the one with the ocean in hand, and
You are the one who has numbered the sand
You are the power that I don’t understand
And dear Lord…
The wind and the waves do as You command and
In your bright presence, no man can stand
You are the power that I don’t understand
And dear Lord You terrify me
They say this fear should not be fright
But I know You—Your dreadful might
When you stand, the sun’s eclipsed
I’m just a man of unclean lips
You are the one with the ocean in hand, and
You are the one who has numbered the sand
You are the power that I don’t understand
And dear Lord…
The wind and the waves do as You command and
In Your bright presence no man can stand
You are the power that I don’t understand
And dear Lord You terrify me
