"Wild Oceans Rage" lyrics

God is great
God is good
God is misunderstood
God is more than wrong or right
God is darkness
God is light
The devil mocks
Our confidence
Our best laid plans
Our ignorance
The devil's not like what we hear
The devil lives in common fear

Say your prayers to me
Silently
And I will be there
Wild oceans rage
Through every age
I will be there

Yes I've seen
Your father's fist
Your mother grip
Your tiny wrist
Teachers turn
The other way
Friends get scared
And walk away
Yes, I watched
The black snakes rise
To your chest
Into your eyes
Through the ceiling
To the stars
I would not let
Them claim your heart

Say your prayers to me
Silently
And I will be there
Wild oceans rage
Through every age
I will be there

There's a place
In outer space
Where something drew
Your living face
Then sent you from
Your cosmic room
Down into
Your mother's womb
Oh that was
A holy day
Watching stars
Fall away
Then feeling warmth
And feeling weight
With no way to
Communicate

Say your prayers to me
Wordlessly
And I will be there
Wild oceans roar
Outside our door
I will be there
Say your prayers to me
Endlessly
And I will be there
Wild oceans rage
Through every age
I will be there
Be there
Be there
