Splash into my Soul
My eyes look into this world as if their staring through a kaleidoscope
As shapes and colors come to life to twist and turn on this steep slope
That towers over me like a mountain that no one has attempted to scale
Fear the long fall into the rocks below that brings concern that I might fail
You will crash hard like a boulder that rolls with such great might
If you allow the voices of evil to intercept the Spirit’s call in the light
As raging winds shift your position and the waves push you down under
I need Your help to pull me out as you amaze me with your glorious wonder
I feel the ground below me start to crack like a devastating earthquake
A chilling terror strikes the world as our foundation begins to shake
Until it rocks me upside down so I feel defeated and too helpless to stand
Spun into a web of lies where my faith is torn like book pages in my hand
My biography has already been read and reviewed by these unseen eyes
I need a splash of cool water to refresh my soul that is blinded by surprise
How I thirst for this river of life that flows right through my veins like blood
A feeling of rejuvenation overcomes my weakened soul that God will flood
Strike me like a rattlesnake where I feel the poison rush in to take control
Break my silence with a whisper from the heavens that will speak to my soul
Open my mind to Your beauty and hide this world that is burning in ashes
Stir emotions like wildfire that swirl inside me like a hurricane that crashes
You will never feel a stronger power surge of love than this one that thrives
On hurting souls that burn to know the truth and taste a life that drives
My heart to conviction as Your hands reach down to take a hold of mine
Forever is at stake so free your heart of all burdens with help from the Divine
The invisible One is taking possession over my body from deep within
He is pushing His undying love through my wounds to break the skin
I have the assurance of eternity that will empower my soul to take flight
To a place of celestial wonder that shines brighter than any white light
Here I am crawling to You in a time of despair that has left me so dry
I need spiritual encouragement to release this pain of wanting to die
As I try to let go and give God the wheel so he can give me direction
Though I fall short of Your glory I am constantly aiming for perfection
I know were never so lost that we cannot find a love that lies elsewhere
Your never too far from home because shelter rest in a simple prayer
Comforting these searching eyes that are no more than a glance away
From a hope that knows no end and that will last forever and a day
