Everybodyduck - Some Balance lyrics

In his seat, in a boat, on an ocean far from here There's a man out on the water all alone. But his time is wearing thin 'cause a storm is moving in That will crush his boat and sink him like a stone. Staring up at the sky he can see the hurricane Figgures he has time enough to get away. But instead he turns around, drops the paddles and kneels down And like a pious man of God begins to pray. Oh, we've got to draw the line Between having faith and being blind. Use your mind if you've got time, don't drop the oars. God will save you like He said But you've got to use your head. So when the storm comes pray to God but row for shore. On a couch, in a house, on a street not far from here You sit and watch the opportunities pa** by. Mindlessly waste your life away Hoping God would save the day When all along you could have lived if you'd have tried. Faith is right, God delights When we trust him with our lives But we must clear the path so God can lead the way. He will cause the crop to yield If we'll wisely work the field But faith and action hand in hand's the only way. Oh, we've got to draw the line Between having faith and being blind. Use your mind if you've got time, don't drop the oars. God will save you like He said But you've got to use your head. So when the storm comes pray to God but row for shore.
