In the darkness
In the Deep
My eyes are open
Yet I cannot see
I am lost
No one knows
No one cares
No one is looking
Or trying to find me
Each day I sink deeper
In the quicksand of sin
Nothing to hold on to
No hope
Only fear resides within
Who will come and rescue Me?
Who will reach out His arms to save me ?
Who has the strength to pull me
From this weight of sin ?
There is only one God
Jesus, on you I call and depend
There is no other answer
To the questions I am drowning in
Don't stop pulling me upward
Till I reach the surface sure
And can breathe again
Your life within me once more
I called and You came
You did not let me die
You were waiting
We were standing there all along
You were right by My side
Waiting to hear Your name
Waiting for my urgent cry
The sound of surrender
The cry for freedom
The cry for rest
I don't think you would answer
Then I would surely die
I called and you answered
You rescued me
You came and sent me free
Again and Again
You proved Your love for me
I can breathe now
Deeply I can breathe again
My lungs find rest and I find peace
I am safely home...
Safely home again
