The Ocean Speaks



The Ocean Speaks
Author: Mark V. Markov

Oh it's deeper
Than I can imagine
Oh it's wider
Than I can perceive

Your love Oh Lord
Is like the ocean
The ocean speaks of Your love for me
Your love Oh Lord
Is like the ocean

Oh the ocean speaks
The ocean speaks of Your love for me
Oh the ocean speaks
The ocean speaks of Your love for me

Nothing can take You away from me
Nothing can separate me
From Your love
Nothing can take You away from me
Nothing can separate me
From the power of Your love

Oh it's deeper
Than I can imagine
Oh it's wider
Than I can perceive

Oh the ocean speaks
The ocean speaks of Your love for me
Oh the ocean speaks
The ocean speaks of Your love for me

Nothing can take You away from me
Nothing can separate me
From Your love
Nothing can take You away from me
Nothing can separate me
From the power of Your love

Oh it's deeper
Than I can imagine
Oh it's wider
Than I can perceive

Your love Oh Lord
Is like the ocean
The ocean speaks of Your love for me
Your love Oh Lord
Is like the ocean

Oh the ocean speaks
The ocean speaks of Your love for me
Oh the ocean speaks
The ocean speaks of Your love for me...
