06. The Surface

Even Heroes Need A Parachute
by This Beautiful Republic



 

 

VS1
Waves crashing over
Think I’m going under
Will the Savior keep me above the surface?

VS2
Someone in the distance
Please call me from this
Only you can keep me above the surface

Chorus
Thinking that it all just might fade away
Terrified to fall cause I stepped out today
Sinking cause I know, I know I think too much


Save me, Jesus save me

VS3
My eyes are keeping
Focused only on you
It’s You that keeps me above the surface

Bridge
The stronger the wind blows
The lesser my faith knows
And under the water
I’m colder I’m farther
I wish I could keep it together
I don’t want to let you down


(TBR/Allen Salmon)

Behind the Song:
"Life can get really overwhelming. When this happens, it distracts us the same way the waves distracted Peter, and we begin to die. We start to depend on our own power instead of God’s, despite a true desire to please Him. Those are the times when we need Jesus’ hand." - This Beautiful Republic
