Ocean Baptism

Heartbeat kick and the shoreline breathe Reggae bounce while the night wind sweep Christ in my chest, now the dark retreat You and me healed where the salt waves meet I was lost, now I’m found in Light Less attacks in the middle of night Now I see every lie on sight Greater is He, so I’m standin’ upright Ohhh… new creation, hold me close Ocean water, Holy Ghost No more fear that I’ll lose you slow Christ made me new, now the real me show Ohhh… revolve with me, don’t fade away Love and grace in the words we say No more runnin’ from yesterday We can build somethin’ Heaven-made I know I came from a broken place Pain in my heart, pressure on my brain But I don’t wanna love through fear and chase I just want peace when I see your face Florida breeze and the clear tide blue Church bells ring and I think of you Backroad prayers that the Spirit grew Now every blessing make me want you too Shalom fall when the bassline ride Ruach move while the moonlight shine Ahavah keep both souls alive Christ in the center, we survive Ohhh… new creation on the shoreline now Hands to Heaven while the tide roll out I was broken then, but I’m chosen now And I still choose you through the highs and doubts Ohhh… revolve with me through every wave No more fear that you walk away Perfect love make the darkness break Now we move in faith, not pain I wanna show you the roads I found Little churches in forgotten towns Tifton nights where the prayers got loud God kept liftin’ me from the ground Key West skies and Orlando lights Late-night worship on late-night drives Maybe St. Johns just to see you smile Not for the world, just to make you shine Lev tahor, let the clean heart lead Mayim wash every memory No chains left from the old me Just Christ alive inside of me Final evolving chorus Ohhh… new creation, beachside glow Saltwater tears let the old wounds go No more shadows control my soul Now God and love make the broken whole Ohhh… revolve with me till the end of time Slow reggae sway while the stars align You and me with the Lord divine New life, new heart, new state of mind Hebrew phrases & meanings: Shalom — peace Ruach — spirit/breath of God Ahavah — love Lev tahor — clean/pure heart Mayim — water
