Verse 1
Night and day I seek Your face
Long for You in the secret place
All I want in this life
Is to truly know you more...
Verse 2
As the waters cover the sea,
So Your love covers me
Guiding me on,
Roads unknown
I trust in You alone (2x)
CHORUS
My Saving Grace
My endless love
Deeper and deeper I'm falling in love with You
My one desire
My only truth
Deeper and deeper I'm falling in love with you
Verse 2

with you..
fallin' in love with you...

BRIDGE
And I will rise on wings of eagles
Soaring high above all my fears
I rest in Your open arms of love

As the waters cover the sea
So your love covers me....
covers me...
