And I am drifting down the stream in-
to a waterfall, and
I am trapped beneath the froth
Swimming for the surface,
and reaching for the sides, and
I am so afraid that both
are out of reach, and
I am so afraid that both
are out of reach, and
I am so afraid of drowning
Chorus:
This is my fear, this is my cry--
Who will save me in my hour of drowning?
I cannot hear, I cannot see--
Darkness and gravity are all around me
Lord, hear my cry...
Now the crucial moment:
Coming up to breathe is
A fading opportunity
Cross the silent line in-
to the mystery, where
I have no strength left in me
to seek the air, but
Now the peace has overcome
the cold despair, I'm
hearing voices--am I here or there?
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Passed beneath the waters, once, yes,
A birth came from above
But now I am trapped below
Where, under this water, is Your love?
CHORUS
