Falling, falling, falling am I
Into the deep, deep pit of despair
Darkness all around
Hands reaching, reaching, reaching
Down towards me
Lifting me gently towards the light
I collapse, falling, falling……
~~~
Do not be afraid my child
Fear not for I am with you
Surrender yourself
~~~
Falling, falling, falling am i
Into the fist of darkness
I sink deep into the harsh
Hard pillow
Falling
Sinking
Drowning
~~~
Reaching, reaching, reaching
Hands upwards – I try my fragile voice
‘O Lord, oh please hear my cry’
Hands pulling, pulling, pulling me
Out of the fist of darkness
The light shines brightly.
~~~
God’s soft eyes look upon me
All is well, my child, all is well
You are safe. You are loved.
You are worthy. You are appreciated.
~~~
Falling no longer I am
I sit under the shelter of God’s wings
Soaring high like eagles
I am safe.
It is well with my soul.
