  I was drifting Lord
Down a dirty stream
I was pushing Lord
Towards my selfish dreams

Can you hear me
Screaming for salvation
God I’m drowning
I need a revelation
From you
I wish I could find you

My driftwood dreams
Have gone up in flame
I am crying Lord
Shouting out your name

Can you hear me
Screaming for salvation
God I’m drowning
I need a revelation
From you
I wish I could find you

You promised Lord
To stand by my side
You live in my heart
Why are you so hard to find

And I’ll let go
Of all of this pride
Now I know
I am worthless inside
Of myself

A quiet roar
Erupting right now
I hear you speaking Lord
drenched in your power
your footsteps are there in the sand
your fingers wrapped around my hand

I can hear you
Promising salvation
Your love for me
The only revelation I need
From you
I have found you
And I will follow you now
