On repeat

In the midst of the raging sea,
There I was sailing.
The waves were pounding me,
Making me afraid.
(And it seems That Christ has left me,) x2
(But I no longer see him because of my weak faith) x2

Refrain:
Jesus when he saw me,
Came to me quickly.
In my despair and darkness,
He opened my eyes.
(When I saw him, I cried have mercy) x2
(He came to me quickly and had mercy on me) x2

The sounds of the angry waves,
Agonized my ears.
Darkness of the creeping night,
Has threatened my peace.
(And the tears, have not left my eyes)x2
(And the sleepless nights, have overwhelmed me) x2

I was in despair and drowning,
And my hope is torn.
I came to my beloved Jesus,
Offering him my tears.
(When he saw me, He had compassion on me) x2
(He stretched out his sweet hand, and dried my tears) x2

In the Midst of the Raging Sea

Lyrics:

On a chilly morning one day
In the desert far away
One monk went to the garden
As usual to pray

He saw a strange glow
A grape vine hanging low
But this was not the season
For any grapes to grow

(The monk didn’t wait
Rushed to the monastery’s gate) x2
(And gave it to the Abbott
St Macarious the Great) x2

St. Macarious said who
Should I give this vine to?
Finally he walked to the cell  
Of the eldest monk he knew

He said take this my dear
You are the eldest here
And when you get the blessing
We’ll all be of good cheer

(The monk reluctantly
Took it but so quickly) x2
(Thought how can I enjoy it
When my brothers sleep hungry) x2

He gave it to the monk next door
And it went from door to door
It came back to the abbot
At the end of its tour

St Macaious the Great 
He rose up right away
Asking all the monks to gather 
And hear what he had to say

(He said I clearly see
Seeds of love growing here) x2
(And this grape vine 
Is my sure sign) x2

(Our Lord made us aware
We are light of the world) x2
(And when it’s shining bright
It can never ever hide) x2

Lyrics: 

Christ Who lived
Christ Who died
Came and sacrificed His life
For my sake, He did lay
Himself down and took my shame

All my worries He did free
The Logos, The Almighty 
Son of God, The Righteous One
Our Saviour, King of everyone

Christ Who lived
Christ Who died
Came and sacrificed His life
For my sake, He did lay
Himself down and took my shame
Christ Who lived
Christ Who died
Came and sacrificed his life
Christ Who lived
Christ Who died
Came and sacrificed His life

Served everyone, He didn't mind
Came to save and heal the blind
He is love and humility 
Born to die for humanity 

Christ Who lived
Christ Who died
Came and sacrificed His life
For my sake, He did lay
Himself down and took my shame
Christ Who lived
Christ Who died
Came and sacrificed his life
Christ Who lived
Christ Who died
Came and sacrificed His life

Was taken to be crucified
The innocent One chose to die
Hung and nailed to a tree
All for the sake of you and me

Christ Who lived
Christ Who died
Came and sacrificed His life
For my sake, He did lay
Himself down and took my shame
Christ Who lived
Christ Who died
Came and sacrificed his life
Christ Who lived
Christ Who died
Came and sacrificed His life

After three days He Rose from the dead
Destroyed all Satan's defense 
He promised He will come again
Our hope in Him will never end 

Christ Who lived 
Christ Who died
Rose and saved 
The dead and alive 
Said I’m here 
You're finally free
My child you belong to Me

Christ Who lived
Christ Who died
Came and sacrificed His life
For my sake, He did lay
Himself down and took my shame
Christ Who lived
Christ Who died
Came and sacrificed his life
Christ Who lived
Christ Who died
Came and sacrificed His life

Christ Who lived
Christ Who died
To Him I owe all my life
