WHEN I AM SINKING DOWN,
When I am lost at sea
No solace to be found,
No ground beneath my feet
I turn to You as I go down,
I reach for You through roaring waves
My only hope is in Your arms,
My only prayer is that You’d save me
‘Cause You make me soar like the angels
You let me walk on the water
You let me run with white horses
Jesus my strength when all is gone
You are my strength when all is gone
When I am all alone,
No land is in my sight
All others lost from view,
And comes the darkening night
I reach for You as I go down,
I look to You through wind and waves
My only hope is in Your arms,
My only prayer is that You’d save me
Brenton Brown
