Above the Water

When you are jumping up and down,
So excited for the next thing,
Then life hits you in face and you feel you are going to drown,
Don’t freak out, put your head above the water and sing. 

Look up above your fears, ignore the waters.
If you are focused on the crushing, rising swells
How will you see beyond to the One watching over all His daughters? 
Don’t miss His quiet whisper because of your own yells. 

When your focus is removed from the water and placed on the sky
Your head tilts up and a breath of air fills your lungs. 
Only then can calm consume the insecurity, causing it to die. 

Breathing in His presence, trusting in the moment, receive the peace that comes.
