From Heaven You can hear
I know You're drawing near
As I worship
Held within Your love
The wind and waves will come
But I will stay here
I lift my hands to Heaven
Here my heart surrendered
I tell my soul again
You are Lord of all
And though the seas are raging
You will speak and tame them
In You I find my rest
You are in control
Through valleys I will trust
Your spirit is enough, to keep me walking
You guide my every step
Speak life to me again
Lord I need You
Oh I need You
I lift my hands to Heaven
Here my heart surrendered
I tell my soul again
You are Lord of all
And though the seas are raging
You will speak and tame them
In You I find my rest
You are in control
I will trust in only You
No one can add to Your perfection
You're the beginning and the end
More than I can comprehend
There is no one like You
No one
I will trust in only You
No one can add to Your perfection
You're the beginning and the end
More than I can comprehend
There is no one like You
No one
I will trust in only You
No one can add to Your perfection
You're the beginning and the end
More than I can comprehend
There is no one like You
Jesus
I lift my hands to Heaven
Here my heart surrendered
I tell my soul again
You are Lord of all
And though the seas are raging
You will speak and tame them
In You I find my rest
You are in control
I lift my hands to Heaven
Here my heart surrendered
I tell my soul again
You are Lord of all
And though the seas are raging
You will speak and tame them
In You I find my rest
You are in control
In You I find my rest
You are in control
