[b]I yelled out to my God.
I yelled with all my might.
I yelled at the top of my lungs.
He listened.

I found myself in trouble and went looking for the Lord
my life was an open wound that wouldn't heal
When friends said "Everything will turn out alright"
I didn't believe a word they said.
I remembered God and shook my head.
I bowed my head...then wrung my hands.
I was awake all night, not a wink of sleep.
I couldn't even say what was bothering me
I would go over the days one by one
I pondered the years gone by
I would strum my guitar all night, wondering how to
get my life together.

Will God walk off and leave me?
Will He never smile again?
Is His love worn threadbare?
Had His promise of salvation burned out?
Had He forgotten His manners?
Had he stalked off and left us all here?
Just my course, that the High God goes out of business
the moment that I need Him.

Once again I go over what You have done, lay out on
the table the ancient wonders
ponder all the things You've accomplished and
give a long, loving look at Your acts.

Oh God! Your way is holy!
No god is great like God.
You're the God Who makes things happen.
you've showed everyone what You can do!

Ocean saw you in action God,
saw you and trembled with fear.
Deep ocean was scared to death
Clouds belched buckets of rain.
Sky exploded with thunder
Your arrows flashing this way and that.
From whirlwind came Your thundering voice
Lightning exposed the world
Earth reeled and rocked.
You strode through Ocean
walked straight through Ocean
but no one saw You come or go.
Hidden in the hands of Your leaders
You lead your people like flocks of sheep.
