On Repeat
Broken down, all alone
I haven't seen the sun
For so many days
I'm clinging to the promise
Of a mountain top
But right now, Lord
I'd settle for some rain
For some rain
Sweep me away
By Your great love
Cover my life in Your holy flood
Let the currents of change
Come and carry away
All of my questions, my doubts and my pain
Deliver my life from this valley, I pray
There's a blessing in the valley
I cry out in faith
But my mind begins to wonder
If I'll ever see that day
I know that seasons are expected
But winter leads to spring
So I'll thank You in the middle of everything
Thank You in everything
Casting all my cares on You
Because You care for me
Lord, remove my burden
And destroy the yoke that I carry
Sweep me away
By Your great love
Cover my life in Your holy flood
There the currents of change
Come and carry away
All of my questions, my doubts, and my pain
Deliver my life from this valley, I pray
Sweep me away
Sweep Me Away, Monk and Neagle

Step Out
You look around and staring back at you
Another wave of doubt
Will it pull you under, you wonder
What if I’m overtaken, what if I never make it
What if no one’s there, will You hear my prayer
If you take that first step into the unknown
Know that He won’t let you go
So what are you waiting for
What do you have to lose
Your insecurities, they try to hold you
You know you’re made for more
So don’t be afraid to move
If faith is all it takes
Then you can walk on the water too
So get out and let your fear fall to the ground
No time to waste, don’t wait
And don’t you turn around and miss out
Everything you were made for
I know you’re not sure
So you play it safe, you try to run away
If you take that first step into the unknown
He won’t let you go
So what are you waiting for
What do you have to lose
Your insecurities, they try to hold you
You know you’re made for more
Don’t be afraid to move
If faith is all it takes
Then you can walk on the water too
Step out, even when it’s storming
Step out, even when you’re broken
Step out, even when you heart is telling you, telling you to give up
Step out, when your hope is stolen
Step out, you can’t see where you’re going
You don’t have to be afraid
So what are you waiting, what are you waiting for
Walk On the Water, Britt Nicole
Fear not, for I am with you.
Do not be dismayed, for I am your God;
I will strengthen you, I will help you;
I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
Isaiah 41:10
