Resonate the Word - The God of Second Chances Lyrics

The voice of the Lord came down to me
Go to the city, set them free
But fear took hold, I turned away
Sailed to the sea, refused to stay
The winds arose, the waters cried
The storm declared I could not hide
They cast me down, the sea grew still
Yet mercy waited in the deep
Oh, where can I run? Where can I flee
Your love pursues, it's calling me
In darkest depths, in raging sea
You are the God who rescues me
Swallowed whole in the belly of night
Three long days with no hope in sight
Yet in the dark, I cried Your name
And from the deep, Your mercy came
You heard my prayer, You set me free
Spoke to the waves, they carried me
Upon dry ground, I stood again
Given new life, a call reclaimed
Oh, where can I run? Where can I flee
Your love pursues, it's calling me
In darkest depths, in raging sea
You are the God who rescues me
Nineveh stood in sin so wide
Yet still You longed to turn the tide
They heard the words, they bowed in shame
And called upon Your mighty name
But I grew cold, my heart was stone
How could You love the ones I loathe
Yet still You taught, still You stayed
A God of grace, so slow to rage
Oh, where can I run? Where can I flee
Your love pursues, it's calling me
In darkest depths, in raging sea
You are the God who sets us free
Your mercy flows like waves so wide
For sinner, saint, for all alive
Not just for me, but for them too
Your heart still beats to make things new
