The Everlasting

I see the sun rising up again
And it carries so many questions what do you mean
As my body is growing older
And your plans are undefined my God

What do you mean
I'll always be searching
To the end of my days
The mercy you tell of

Keeps these arms from hanging on
When you tear it down
Are we worth saving
When I let you down

Am I worth saving
Save me, o God
For the waters have come up to my neck
I sink in the miry depths

Where there is no foothold I have come into the deep waters
The floods engulf me
I am worn out calling for help
My throat is parched

My eyes fail, looking for my God
I will live forever by your hands I rise
Up against the storm
Oh glory

By your love we rise
We will face the world
So many bodies
Reaching for the truth

We were never beautiful on our own
But you cleaned us
We were never graceful
But you still loved us save me, o God

Protect me
Surround me
While I hold onto you
We can't live
We can't breathe without you
We need you
