allow me an emo moment...

I'm not usually one to post words to a song, but this one really touched me. It is my prayer as I start the new year with new resolve not to be a big fat whiny baby (see previous post). You should totally buy it for your ipod or other portable encouragement device!

The Storm
Lifehouse/Who We Are
how long have I been in this storm
so overwhelmed by the ocean's shapeless form
water's getting harder to tread
with these waves crashing over my head
if I could just see You
everything will be alright
if I'd see You
this darkness will turn to light
and I will walk on water
and You will catch me if I fall
and I will get lost into Your eyes
I know everything will be alright
I know everything is alright
I know You didn't bring me out here to drown
so why am I 10 feet under and upside down
barely surviving has become my purpose
cause I'm so used to living underneath the surface
if I could just see You
everything would be alright
if I’d see You
this darkness would turn to light
and I will walk on water
and You will catch me if I fall
and I will get lost into Your eyes
I know everything will be alright
everything's alright.
