Here are the lyrics to Swept Away:


Swept Away
Written by Geoff Moore and Blair Masters

We would say your name
A hundred times a day
Like speaking words in faith
And with a mixture of
Hope and fear and trust
We prayed for the strength to wait

At how much you are loved
Your life will never be the same
Once you’re swept away

What once was just a dream
Is now reaching up to me
And I hold her in my arms

Karen,
I used to listen to Geoff Moore all the time. I didn't know that he had adopted from China. That is too cool.
Well I hope you get your news soon. I know how hard the wait can be. We have just gone through that part of the wait and have been blessed with a referral for a beautiful daughter. We are looking forward to seeing your sweet baby's face soon.
