The first verse really reminds me of Psalm 42:7 - "Deep calls out to deep in the roar of your waterfalls". This passage was given new meaning for me recently reading AW Tozer's words:
"The yearning to know what cannot be known, to comprehend the incomprehensible, to touch and taste the unapproachable, arises from the image of God in the nature of man. Deep calleth unto deep, and though polluted and landlocked by the mighty disaster theologians call the Fall, the soul senses its origin and longs to return to its source."
It's like we are water droplets, straining to get back to our source, the ocean of God from whence we came. Always longing for the deeper ground, even the river's ways to run, until the smooth, calm, deep sea of glass, where finally the water finds what it been longing for.
