I have run to the ocean
Through the horizon, chased the sun
I've waited for the light to come
And at times I would give up
You have wrapped your loving arms round me
And with your love I'll overcome
You have clothed me when I was weak
You have given unselfishly
Kept me from falling, falling
Everywhere but my knees
You set me free
To live my life
You became my reason to survive the great divide
You set me free
I've been on heaven's doorstep
With the door open, one foot inside
I've cried out: God, give me answers
Please hush child, I'll tell you why
You have loved me when you were weak
You have given unselfishly
Kept you from falling, falling
Everywhere but your knees
You set me free
To live my life
You became my reason to survive the great divide
You set me free
To live my life
You became my reason to survive the great divide
You set me free
You set me free
Ooh our love is beautiful
Ooh ooh isn't this beautiful?
Child it seems that you have been my everything
Our love is beautiful
Stood by my side while we survive the great divide
Isn't this beautiful?
You set me free
To live my life
You became my reason to survive the great divide
You set me free
To live my life
You became my reason to survive the great divide
You set me free
To live my life
You became my reason to survive the great divide
You set me free
You set me free
You set me free
