Above The Water

This was written on 26/05/07. Hope you like it.

Verse 1
Tell me why I'm still standing here
I've been slipping away for so long
Surely I should have been gone by now

Chorus
But it's You who holds me high
It's You who keeps me anchored to this life
It's You who holds my head above the water

Verse 2
So many times I thought I'd breathed my last
The air is too thin down here
As the icy water drowns me, it feels like the end

Verse 3
I cried out for You to save me
But at the same time tried to swim away
Too late I realised I was sinking

Bridge
Darkness consumed me, I couldn't breathe
But through the pain I saw You walk across the raging ocean
And You held my head above the water
