At times in life

I feel like I’m drowning fast

Surrounded by darkness and strife

Convinced that I won’t last

♦~♦

Embracing fear and doubt

A current force pulls me under

I can’t seem to get out

My final blunder

♦~♦

With all the strength that remains

I cry out to the Lord

And all that restrains

Falls away

And my heart soars

♦~♦

From beneath the waves crashing

And the wind blowing

I can breathe by the Lord’s provision

And I witness the stars shining
