Afloat

I'm really enjoying this lyrics/photo project so far! Lets see how long I can keep this up! I have a whole bunch of ideas for more of these swimming around in my brain; some serious and some silly. The problem right now is that I am so comfortable taking pictures of people, which aren't neutral (?) enough to be made into these text/poster/things. So I will be trying to take more pictures with this new criteria in mind now! This will be FUN!

This is a song by a fairly local brother duo: Caleb and Sol. God has been teaching me Faith and Trust by sending me situations where I have no control over the outcome or the process. But He calls me out out my comfort, out of my boat to walk out alone! So this song has been on my mind...

Afloat-Caleb and Sol

Floating with the wind, I am drifting East
It's like I calmed the ocean still and put the waves to sleep
But the tides are changing, No it ain't the same
There lies a faith in the absence of control they say...

One step forth, and I try to get back
A coward's fear on trail with the weakest faith in man
You call me out my comfort, you call me out the boat
To walk on my own alone, alone

Chorus:
Sometimes I am lost on the open water
Sometimes I am thrown by the wind and the waves
Sometimes I'm swimming in the deep end
Can I stay Afloat, Stay Afloat

The Ocean is deep below my feet
Afraid of what's to come, so I slowly start to sink
I was waiting for my ending, But then you grab my hand
Just like I knew you would, you would

Chorus:
Sometimes I am lost on the open water
Sometimes I am thrown by the wind and the waves
Sometimes I'm swimming in the deep end
Can I stay Afloat, Stay Afloat

In the rain, there is a storm, barely breathing as I paddle...
I am sinking- Does it matter?
In my final breath, my only hope , you come to save me...
