What would Thou have me see?
Where would Thou have me go?
Ever in search of light
That, in truth, I might grow
---------------------------
To travel a great length
And sail against a storm?
To receive words of strength
From apostles of the Lord?
To hear God's words of hope
What sacrifice would you make?
For a forever home
What would you forgo and forsake?
To leave the safety of land
And take your children too
With trust in the Savior's hand
An urgency within grew
The storm whipped mightier
And we all became sick
The winds and rain fought us
Battered, we became weak
Our child died, we pressed on
More desperate now to hear
What we knew came from God
Light shone, above, the sky was clear!
The words were just for us
He knew our hearts desire
To preach with greater trust
To reach souls and inspire
An apostolic blessing
We knew our purpose, more
We knew we'd do great things
And weather any storm
We'd share words from the Lord
[Verse 1] What would Thou have me see? Where would Thou have me go? Ever in search of light, That, in truth, I might grow. [Verse 2] To travel a great length, And sail against a storm? To receive words of strength From apostles of the Lord? [Pre-Chorus] To hear God's words of hope, What sacrifice would you make? For a forever home, What would you forgo and forsake? [Chorus] We followed where Thou led us, Though the waters rose and turned; We held fast to the promise, Through the ache and all we learned. When the clouds gave way to morning, And the open heavens shone, We heard the words meant for us: We were never walking alone. [Verse 3] We left the safety of land And took our children too, With trust in the Savior's hand, An urgency within grew. [Verse 4] The storm whipped mightier, And we all became sick; The winds and rain fought us, Battered, we became weak. [Bridge] Our child died; we pressed on, More desperate now to hear What we knew came from God— Light shone; above, the sky was clear. [Verse 5] The words were just for us; He knew our hearts' desire: To preach with greater trust, To reach souls and inspire. [Chorus] We followed where Thou led us, Though the waters rose and turned; We held fast to the promise, Through the ache and all we learned. When the clouds gave way to morning, And the open heavens shone, We heard the words meant for us: We were never walking alone. [Outro] An apostolic blessing— We knew our purpose more. We knew we'd do great things, And weather any storm. We'd share words from the Lord.
