I know when a storm is coming on, and I can tell when tears are gonna fall And I know what it's like when disappointments seem to make you feel so small I've become the extra when I wished to be the lead And I have been the friend when I wished to be the girl And sometimes all the faith in the world Can still never change what isn't meant to be Chorus: But if I feel like just a teardrop in the rain when I meant to be a river God sees the ocean in me And in the depths of all my sorrow and my pain, when I ask to be delivered He shows the ocean to me He sees the ocean in me He sees all the things that I can't see, and He dries every tear that falls down And sooner or later He opens my eyes And finally I turn around And find that as a servant I had really been a queen And I had been a diamond when I thought that I was glass And I know every heartbreak will pass Just when it seems the hardest to believe 'Cause if I feel like just a teardrop in the rain when I meant to be a river God sees the ocean in me And in the depths of all my sorrow and my pain, when I ask to be delivered He shows the ocean to me He sees the ocean in me And I'm an ocean drawn to the light Reaching for the sky Pulled by gravity And after every storm, I take another shape Landing on a shore far beyond my dreams And if I feel like just a teardrop in the rain when I meant to be a river God sees the ocean in me And in the depths of all my sorrow and my pain, when I ask to be delivered He shows the ocean to me He sees the ocean in me He sees the ocean in me
