Waters Rising
As I walk through my life
The seas round my knees
I am unsteady on my feet
Some days they're round my waist
And I tense, my feet braced
Heart beginning to pound
I try, but I can't make a sound
And then the waters are rising
And I strain my head higher
They're up round my neck
And I'm helpless again
And I know that this time
The slightest of swells
Will send me under to drown
But help is waiting
With strength and compassion
Help is waiting, with kindness and care
Help is waiting
With true understanding
If only I'd known, help was waiting right there
And I'm learning to trust
And I'm learning to take it slow
Learning to talk, learning to breathe
And I no longer fear the ebb and flow
Because help is waiting
With strength and compassion
Help is waiting, with kindness and care
And the waters recede just enough for me to breathe
A full breath once again
Help is waiting right there
(Help, help is waiting
Help, help is waiting
Help, help is waiting right there
Help is waiting right there
Help, help is waiting
Help, help is waiting
Help, help is waiting right there)
And the tightness is easing, the waters receding
I no longer fear I'll succumb
Help is waiting, it's come
The seas round my knees
I am unsteady on my feet
Some days they're round my waist
And I tense, my feet braced
Heart beginning to pound
I try, but I can't make a sound
And then the waters are rising
And I strain my head higher
They're up round my neck
And I'm helpless again
And I know that this time
The slightest of swells
Will send me under to drown
But help is waiting
With strength and compassion
Help is waiting, with kindness and care
Help is waiting
With true understanding
If only I'd known, help was waiting right there
And I'm learning to trust
And I'm learning to take it slow
Learning to talk, learning to breathe
And I no longer fear the ebb and flow
Because help is waiting
With strength and compassion
Help is waiting, with kindness and care
And the waters recede just enough for me to breathe
A full breath once again
Help is waiting right there
(Help, help is waiting
Help, help is waiting
Help, help is waiting right there
Help is waiting right there
Help, help is waiting
Help, help is waiting
Help, help is waiting right there)
And the tightness is easing, the waters receding
I no longer fear I'll succumb
Help is waiting, it's come
