Lyrics
THAT'S MY ONLY HOPE
Words and Music by Peter Merz
Somewhere between
Nineveh and Tarshish
I was telling God
Who is smartest
My stubborn will
All but flops and flounders
Fleeing yes fleeing
Holy encounters
No ace, can’t keep this pace
When I’m sleepin’
No way to win this race
When truth creeps in
Chorus:
I’ve been a fool
Now You’ve got my full attention
My heart undivided
That's my only hope
Kneeling inside a whale
Fighting seaweed to fall down
And to atone, before Your throne
That's my only hope
That's my only hope
Somewhere between
Nemo and Moby Dick
These waves make me seasick
And now I’m trapped
Yeah, twenty-thousand leagues
Floatin’ under the sea
My fears drive me to tears
Through tangled thoughts
I pray Lord save me here
And I will obey you
I pray Lord save me here
I will obey
Chorus
Bridge:
Lord, break me from my prejudice
And assuming too much
Keep me faithful to Your every wish
Somehow I got a hunch
My perspective clean and pure
When I’m before Your throne
No need for whale intervention
When I’m before Your throne
Somewhere between
Swimmin’ krill and Tarshish
Pleading in the darkness
An answer to prayer
Oh, when I get hurled
Without my rip curls
Retake with higher stakes
No reversin’
With obedient faith
Foreign turfin’
With obedient faith
Foreign turfin'
Chorus
Tag:
Oh Father please help me
See Your perspective
(Before Your throne)
You called me to obey
Not play detective
(Before Your throne)
