VS1
Waves crashing over
Think I'm going under
Will the Savior keep me above the surface?
VS2
Someone in the distance
Please call me from this
Only you can keep me above the surface
Chorus
Thinking that it all just might fade away
Terrified to fall cause I stepped out today
Sinking cause I know, I know I think too much
Save me, Jesus save me
VS3
My eyes are keeping
Focused only on you
It's You that keeps me above the surface
Bridge
The stronger the wind blows
The lesser my faith knows
And under the water
I'm colder I'm farther
I wish I could keep it together
I don't want to let you down
