I Have Walked Through The Depths

I Have Walked Through The Depths

I have walked through the depths
heard the wind's awesome roar
saw old stones uncovered
on the deep sea's dry floor

We were there, you and I
when they came to that shore
found life in the waters
and power to restore

Is this just a distant memory
do we proclaim and not know
can you picture that together
we have so much to show

When they ask how can we be certain
I will think of the restrained walls
of the wind, and the stones
and our leader's urgent calls

How our arms were raised in victory
how we cheered and shook the ground
how the masses started trembling
filled with worship all around

There are those that do not know
that the One who made the rain
placed the winds and carved those stones
can command it once again

Oh, am I one who is so foolish
not understanding how torrents flow
don't see the games that people think
their fear when it's time to go

There is a promise that is open
waiting there by the tossing sea
of a passage for your safety
with a ticket that is free

But you must make a decision
to leave what's dear behind
trust in Him to see you on
and know that He is kind

Afterwards an army chased us
not knowing we had passed through
a giant host with horse and shield
all died, crushed by the water too

So now I sing a special song
just for me. what can I say
and next to my heart is a small smooth stone
to remind me of that day
