The Ocean by Matt Papa


Song Lyrics


The Ocean
by Matt Papa

Album: Live at Lincoln Theater


Verse 1:
Look to the sky the star painted heavens
Who could deny your glory, God?
The mountains that rise, the sea as it breaks
This world full of life, it's all just a taste

Chorus:
These are scattered beams, you are the bright sun
These are shallow streams you are the ocean
These are just shadows, and you are the substance
We are thirsty, we are dry, only you can satisfy
You are the ocean

Verse 2:
Father of lights you give every blessing
Who could deny that you are good?
A table of friends
A welcome embrace
The joys we have found
The echoes of grace

(Chorus)

For from you and through you and to you are all things
All things forever my God (2x)

Verse 3:
Then when our eyes behold your appearing
Who will deny that you are God?
Your glory will shine our idols will fade
We see now in parts but then face to face

(Chorus 2x)
