Lyrics:
I searched the garden for the good
Expecting like a child
I thought that was livin’
But a different gift was given
I didn’t find the joy I thought I would
I sent my soul for what I wanted
You gave Yours for what I got instead
There’s more lives than mine hanging in the balance
And only You can make sense of it
So what is this You’ve given me?
A story that I didn’t want to tell
My understanding’s incomplet
You want more for me than what I know so well
Maybe it’s a different good
And all along I misunderstood
And if I’m being honest, it’s not what I thought I wanted
And I wouldn’t choose it for me
But if You see something I can’t see,
It’s just a different good
You’re sending me a tidal wave
Inviting me to be brave
I thought a holy message
Meant I’d always find it pleasant
I’m wondering if it’s more than I can take
But you don’t draw me like a riptide
You call me out onto my own two feet
It’s a delight with terror in it
To turn my heart to something never seen
So what is this You’ve given me?
An adventure I didn’t ask to be on
If all my life I’ve been asleep
I’m waking up, I’m diving in headlong
I’m waking up, I’m diving in
Your love is the tide I’m swimming in
