Oceans Cry

I'm shouting into the waves God
From somewhere deep within
Unintelligible cries Lord
Drowned out by ocean's din
Some most basic call from
created to creator
Long contained.long surpressed,
emerging, voiced much later.
Unrefined and primitive
Undignified, unkempt
Every unfulfilled heart longing
All the dreams I dreamt
All the broken moments
All the heart's frustration
Finding it's expression
Long sought liberation.
Mighty ocean, wash my soul
make the broken pieces whole
As each wave unfurls with crashing
Sparkling droplets softly splashing
Holy Spirit crash and scatter
All the "stuff" that doesn't matter
Wash and cleanse, leave fresh and new
As my soul shouts out to you
Deep cries unto deeper
in languages unknown
Interpreted and understood
By Father God alone.
