The Perfect Wave Page #6

He's been stung by a jellyfish.

You should be careful

with the heroin.

Nobody can help you.

Only God can save you.

Help him, please.

He's dying.

He has been stung by a jellyfish.

- Save him, please.

- Okay, we need to get his wetsuit off.

Just hang in there, Ian.

Stay with me.

We are almost there.

- Ian?

- Mom.

Ian.

I'm dying here.

I'm dying, mom.

No matter

how far you might be from God,

no matter

what you've done wrong,

if you call out to him

from your heart,

he will hear you

and he will forgive you.

Who do I pray to?

Help me pray.

I don't remember.

Please help me pray.

- Our father...

- Who art in heaven...

who art in heaven...

Hallowed be thy name.

Thy kingdom come,

thy will be done...

Forgive us.

Forgive us.

I forgive you.

I forgive you.

...as it is in heaven.

Thank you for loving my son.

Help him, please, lord.

God, if you're real, if you see

anything good in my heart,

please save me.

Please save me.

I don't want to die.

I surrender what's left...

I surrender

what's left of my life

to you, Jesus.

Okay, hurry.

We need to get him

into icu quickly!

Get out the way!

Move!

He should be dead.

I count five stings.

Bring the defibrillator in.

Stay with me, son.

Put the oxygen mask on now.

Son, can you hear me?

- Check the blood pressure.

- I'm not getting a reading, doctor.

Stay with me, son.

I can hardly feel the pulse.

- Give me 10 milligrams of adrenaline.

- Yes, doctor.

He's flatlining!

Nurse, start the CPR.

One, two, three...

Stay with me.

For thine is the kingdom

and the power...

And the glory forever.

He's still flatlining.

Stop that now.

We've lost him.

No, no, no, no!

No.

No.

My baby.

He's so young.

Dying alone in a hospital,

probably far from home.

Hello?

Doctor?

Nurse?

I think you guys

turned the lights off.

I can't see anything.

Hello?

Time of death... 11:18 pm.

I'll take him to the morgue.

Who do we notify?

We don't even know who he is.

I tried to touch my face,

and my hand

went right through me.

It was like I was

out of my own body.

Can I help you?

He's my friend.

I am so sorry.

I can't believe it.

We did everything we could

to save him.

Can you notify his relatives?

Where am I?

Who is that?

Who is that?!

Where?

No. No, no, no.

No, I prayed.

I asked for forgiveness.

I asked for forgiveness, Jesus.

Ian, you are forgiven.

I love you.

Thank you, lord.

Thank you.

Guys, I have bad news.

Ian is dead.

How do you know he's dead?

I saw him at the morgue.

He's gone.

Once you get stung

by invisible, that's it.

You're gone.

I'm sorry.

Ian, I am the true light.

And in me there is no darkness.

Jesus...

Who are they?

These are the ones

for whom I died...

The ones who will never step

into my church,

who will never know the love

that I have for them

unless someone goes to them...

And tells them.

Mom?

I have... I have to go back

and tell her it's true.

Ian, if you return...

Please.

...You must see things

in a new light.

I'll tell them.

I'll tell them about you.

Please give me a second chance.

Tilt your head back, Ian.

Now, open your eyes...

And see.

Doctor! Doctor!

Hello?

Dad?

Ian?

Ian, is that you?

Here.

Here's your mother.

It's Ian.

Ian?

Ian? Oh!

You... you are dead!

I went to the hospital!

I saw you in the morgue

with my own eyes.

Simone, don't worry.

It's me.

I was, but I've been given

a second chance.

People don't survive invisibles.

You're back from the dead, Ian.

What happened?

I don't know if you guys

will ever believe me,

but there's something

much bigger out there than us.

Let me tell you

what happened to me.

My life has changed forever.

Mac.

Did you see Lachlan's wave?

- I did.

- It's a wave of a lifetime, man.

So, what about you, Mac?

You don't leave

till later this evening

and the waves

are still firing out there.

Nah, not today.

I've ridden my wave.

Yeah, I've been thinking about

what you said last night

and I believe you.

I downloaded

the e-version Bible this morning

and I started to read it

for the first time.

Really?

Can I take a look?

Yeah, I'm gonna catch a wave.

Come say cheers

before you leave, okay?

Okay.

Take it easy.

Walked in ways I never should

Built my walls and fences good

Where am I now?

Where am I now?

Give me some fire

At the feet of your grace

Feet of your grace

The feet of your grace

And merciful hands

At the feet of your grace

The feet of your grace

Yeah, yeah

Feet of your grace

The feet of your grace.

Our father who art in heaven

Hallowed be thy name

Thy kingdom come

Thy will be done

On earth as it is in heaven

Give us this day

our daily bread

And forgive us

for our trespasses

And lead us not

into temptation

Deliver us...

I'm standing here looking upon a

being who's surrounded by light,

not a shadow

or touch of darkness.

I have just come from a realm

which was complete darkness.

There is no light here.

I'm going, "if that's God,

how on earth can I be standing here?

Surely if he knows my name,

he knows my thought

before I even speak.

Everything must be

transparent before him.

I've made a mistake.

I'm not a good man.

They've obviously beamed

the wrong person up."

I began to move back

from the light

feeling very ashamed,

very self-conscious,

and began moving back

towards the darkness

to judge myself back into hell.

As I began moving back,

waves of light emanated off his presence.

The first wave of light touched

me.

I felt unconditional love

and acceptance.

As waves... my whole hands

and fingers tingled

as I felt this liquid light

into the core of my being

and I felt pure love.

I began to weep.

I thought, "men don't cry."

More tears began to come.

Wave after wave of love.

I thought, "God,

surely you know my sins.

You can't love me."

More love kept coming.

I thought, "perhaps he doesn't know.

I should tell him now."

No use coming in

and having to kick me out later.

So I stood there and said,

"well, God, I've cursed

and broken your commandments,

taken drugs,"

and began speaking

all my sins out.

"I've slept around."

As I continued to speak

the worst of my sins,

his love got so strong that I ran

out of being able to tell him

It's as though every sin

had been completely forgiven.

He said, "Ian, everything

you had ever committed

was forgiven in that ambulance when

you prayed the lord's prayer."

And lead us not

into temptation

Deliver us, deliver us

And lead us not

into temptation

Deliver us

Thy kingdom come.

I cut like truth

Any of my thoughts

'Cause even if I try to

Deeper into light I fall

And I fall

Like a perfect wave for you

Promise that you'll never go

We could watch the world

move round

Teach me everything to know

'Cause I've been lost so long

Deeper into light I fall

And I fall

Time can stand still

Emotion never will

I guess I've fallen under you

You ask me

what I came here for

And I fall

Like a perfect wave for you

I promise that I'll never go
