Tidal Wave

Grand ocean reaching
 Boundlessly into the skyline
 Where the waters end, the shores run free
 A perfect design made for me to tend
 Sad You needed Your own Son to send
 When my footprints are always left behind
 And the path forever meets the day
 I think I'm needing a tidal wave
 An old intriguing wooden pier
 Running into the sea
 A stretch of shoreline smooth and clear
 Separating the pier and me
 Step forward slightly careful
 So my marks won't taint the sand
 But from the pier, I turn to see
 A broken path that leads to where I stand
 Dark impressions and You weep
 Takes a heavy heel to sink so deep
 When my footprints are always left behind
 And the path forever meets the day
 I think I'm needing a tidal wave
 What could ever clean the path I left behind
 If the water sweeps my prints away?
 I think I'm needing a tidal wave
 A garden made for me to tend
 I fail so You had to send
 Your one and only gracious Son
 Coming like a tidal wave
 Rinsing all I have done
 When my footprints are always left behind
 And the path forever meets the day
 I think I'm needing a tidal wave
 What could ever clean the path I left behind
 If the water sweeps my prints away?
 I think I'm needing a tidal wave
