It took
the tears of God
To fill up the sea
To fill up the sea
For you and me
To make the waves
To roll to the shore
A surfers' paradise
For evermore
It took
the tears of God
It
took the hand of God
To hold up the sky
To hold up the sky
For you and I
So look up to the clouds
Where the eagles soar
Riding on the breeze
While the thunderclaps roar
It
took the hand of God
It
took the breath of God
To give life to us all
To give life to us all
So we could answer the call
Joining creation's choir
We sing the song of the spheres
To the beat of our hearts
Banish all of our fears
It
took the breath of God
We
can ride the waves
Till we reach the shore
Where we can bask in the sun
While the breakers roar
We
can't know all the answers
The questions are hard enough
But we can hold our breath and take the plunge
And trust in the power of love
Let's
get the sand 'tween our toes
And run the length of the beach
The world is here for us now
Just within our reach
No
we can't know all the answers
The questions are hard enough
But we can hold our breath and take the plunge
And trust in the power of love
Trust in the power of love
Trust in the power of love...
