Make me as a lake, Father God
With waters running deep, wide, and calm.
Let my composition be balanced and pure
Free of the pollution that does obscure.
It is You alone that I desire above all others.
And so it is I want to be made like deep waters.
I want to reflect Your glory like sheets of sparkling glass
and the radiance of Your worth which nothing can surpass
I want my worship to fall like sweet rain at your feet
and to rise up like vapors from the very depths of me.
For Your love alone You deserve more than I can give
But It’s for Your love alone that I will always live
So draw from this body every drop I was made to give
and pour into me all that You are so I can do it over again
I want my every molecule permeated with Your grace
So that those who look upon me will only see Your face.
I want my every ebb and flow to be directed by You alone
So those who choose to follow it will be led to Your throne.
Make me as a lake, Father God
With Waters running deep, wide, and calm.
Let me overflow with Your love and scandalous compassion
Eroding the hardness of hearts and stirring up a passion
For You alone should be desired above all others
And so it is I want to see the world like deep waters.
