Robert Roberts - Oh Harsh Tides

Oh harsh tides
be humble upon my soul
may your tainted waters
lead me not astray

Oh harsh tides
your secrets are plentiful
with each splash
i see your cruelness

oh harsh tides
your cold touch shares
so much pain
as still waters slowly grace
my face and
glistens down my cheeks
our pain entangles

So harsh waters guide me your way
for the shore line has faded
and the storm is up ahead
the tides are raging
but i am in completely in your care
so harsh tides be gentle
with me my dear

Robert Roberts
