I walked along the ocean’s edge,
Left footprints in the sand;
Climbed the rocks above the waves,
And there I saw God’s hand.

Relentless waves upon the shore,
My footprints washed away.
So like His love that crashes in
Each time I kneel and pray.

His waves of love encompass me,
And steal my very breath.
My sins, like footprints, washed away –
No sign of them is left.

There seems no way to fathom
What His love has done for me;
Except perhaps to catch a glimpse
In fathoms of the sea.
