Red Sea

it seems like a lot of my posts are turning into poems/songs. well, here's yet another one. i get daily devotionals emailed to me everyday. this song was in my devotional for today. (if you're interested, you can go to www.crosswalk.com and look for the devotional "Encouragement from Today"..i've yet to NOT be blessed by these devotionals.)

Red Sea

Lyrics and Music by Gwen Smith



A battle is raging, the stage is set

Rivers edge, they're placing bets

Facing the water, I'm fighting doubt

I need Your hand to help me out



Part this Red Sea , deliver me

The tide is high, still on the rise

Secure my feet and guide my steps

I won't retreat from this duress

I'm movin', I'm pushin', I'm constantly pressin'

Approaching these waters with holy aggression

Show me Your power, I need intervention

Come and rescue me

Part this Red Sea



Minute by minute new circumstances

Uncharted water, taking my chances

I'm trying to get up the nerve to move

With You on my side, I know I can't lose



Pillar of fire by night on this desert road

Pillar of cloud by day with my heavy load

Its big, its big, I hear it mocking me

But You are bigger and You can part this sea
