Early in the morning we head out
The weather is rough, still we bring the sails up
What the captain commands we carry out
For somehow in the end, he's always been right

Waves come and go (come and go)
And God will save your soul (save your soul)
I can see the land, now I understand

We throw out the fishing nets one by one
Fingers cold, and it's pouring rain
The harvest is gathered from father and son
It's in Gods hands, what the day will bring

Waves come and go (come and go)
And God will save your soul (save your soul)
I can see the land, now I understand

I understand (waves still come and go)
You have a plan (God will save your soul)
I lay my fate, humbly in your hand

I understand (waves still come and go)
You have a plan (God will save your soul)
I lay my fate, humbly in your hand

I understand (waves still come and go)
You have a plan (God will save your soul)
I lay my fate, humbly in your hand

Waves come and go (come and go)
And God will save your soul (save your soul)
I can see the land, now I understand, I understand
