Heavy hearted, leaden
I approach your foggy shore,
And my heart begins to pound
As I hear your mighty roar!
Oh, mighty ocean, there
For as far as I can see
Unbinds the shackles of my past,
My soul's alive. I'm free!
A new-found peace surrounds me,
In surf-sounds everywhere,
And the grace of God caresses me
As the wind blows through my hair!

No lover in my life this year,
No hearts and flowers coming;
No one to kiss or hold me tight,
And yet my heart is humming!
The secret's that I'm loving me;
No longer can deny it!
Before looking for another's love,
I decided I should try it!

Sparkly stars in a sapphire sky,
Twinkle golden, catch my eye;
Moonshine's silver, radiant light
Glows with beauty this cold night!

On a worn wood raft
In sun-bright water,
God rocks me like
A cherished daughter.
In new-found peace
I close my eyes,
And drift to sleep
'Neath summer skies.
To a lullabye of swaying trees
Sweetened by the summer breeze,
My soul awakens, new and clean
'Tween heaven-blue and earthly green.
