Down by the shore I stood naked and alone Asking my father above Where could be my home Why has all forsaken Leaving me to drown In silence pain and loneliness My ears deaf to all sounds
The water look calm no ripple at all No crying of waves or crashing down In anger and dispare The stillness it showed Calmed my heart Not a sound in the air
I stepped forward upon the sand Making fists with my hands Closed my eyes and I could feel The water kissing me
I want to feel the bite of cold To know that something cares And as alone I did walk Thinking of a prayer
None would sing inside my mind As deeper I did fall The cold quiet water now Becomes my one and all
And now the end has greeted me No longer do I crave A kind of love that never came My lord I thought would save
