lyrics

Watch along the water's edge for my soul to come
Drifting back from whence it came before the rising sun
Taken by the strongest tide, the ocean's ebb and flow
I used to be a stronger man but that was long ago

Someone showed me on the shore, the surest place to stand
But I still built my home on the sand

Watch between wind and wave, salted sea and skin
Could I safely sound the depths or will it pull me in?
Under veil of darkness comes the wicked western wind
Oh it's torn my sails and broke my bones with whispers of my sin

Someone showed me on the shore, the surest place to stand
But I still built my home on the sand

When all around my soul gives way, He then is all my hope and stay
When darkness seems to hide His face, I rest on His unchanging grace
When He shall come with trumpet sound, oh may I then in Him be found
In every high and stormy gale, my anchor holds within the veil

Someone showed me on the shore, the surest place to stand
But I still built my home on the sand

On Christ the solid rock I stand, all other ground is sinking sand...
