Read Sea Rising

You know the Red Sea's rising and the waves are looking kinda rough

But I want to keep on going even though the going's getting kinda tough

The people are all uptight and the Pharaoh's rollin' down on me

And I'm afraid I heard You say You want us to walk out in the sea

The thunder is clapping and the lightning is flashing all around

But there's a noise upon the waters and a rumbling deep within the ground

Sometimes you may think that the Lord doesn't see or really care

The time may well come when you think God doesn't see or really care

But ol' Pharaoh couldn't swim a lick, God knew just how to answer prayer.

You know the Pharaoh couldn't swim a lick,

God knew just how to answer prayer.

I've seen my piece of action and you know I had my share,

I've been searching for the answer

but the answer was always there [it was always there]

It wasn't very hard, it was really quite easy, the simple thing I had to do

All I said was, "Jesus, won't You help me be true to myself and You?"

and now I have found the truth

I said, I have found the truth, I'm the living proof.

A one-way street with a one-way sign, I couldn't make up my mind

To flow with the traffic or go my own way, but the truth I wanted to find.

Good God Almighty I'm thankin' You for helping me make the right choice

Now I can stand with innocent hands

and I can raise my voice to tell the world

I have found the truth. I said, I have found the truth, I'm the living proof.
