On Repeat

Standing in this valley
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
