I know the chaos – 2 – v3

The world in darkness

Your Spirit over the waters;

The maelstrom, the chaos

swirling round, about us.

I know the chaos, the storms,

how many of us can say this;

Not yet in Your arms

but before we saw Your light.

Unchanged from the world

pulled by false pleasures;

Not in Your arms, together

seeking false treasure.

Wanting Your guidance

the strength of Your purpose;

Wanting to be servants

resplendent in Your glory.

Serving You ever

worthy of praise, of grace;

Wanting to atone

for our transgressions.

Yet Christ already paid

Your hand upon the waters;

Healing us from darkness

light by Your word.
