(Verse 1)
People talk about what Jesus did, not what He’s still doin’ now,
But I’ve seen Him change a life or two in this small hometown.
Fear’s a liar whisperin’ lies, tryna drag me through the fire,
Worry never worked for me, it’ll drive you to the choir
Singin’ sad songs at a hearse—
Man, I learned it only makes things worse.
(Bridge)
So when rock bottom held me down,
I thanked God right there on the ground.
(Chorus)
When the waves come crashin’, keep swimmin’, don’t drown,
Look up to God when the whole world’s draggin’ you down.
Cry out in the darkness, He’ll meet you where you stand,
Give Him all the broken pieces in your hands.
The devil keeps sayin’, “You ain’t good enough, you can’t do it,”
But God’s sayin’, “Child, I’ll see you through it.”
You can’t live in the past—move ahead, stand firm on holy ground.
Yeah, the waves are always comin’…
But keep swimmin’, don’t drown.
(Verse 2)
Feelin’ in over my head,
Feelin’ lost, outta breath,
Feelin’ like I’m powerless, overwhelmed and second-best.
Feelin’ lonely, feelin’ rejected,
Feelin’ crushed by fear I never expected.
Feelin’ trapped by every regret—
Lord, I ain’t out yet.
(Bridge)
So I opened up the Word and prayed,
Asked God just to light my way.
(Chorus)
When the waves come crashin’, keep swimmin’, don’t drown,
Look up to God when the whole world’s draggin’ you down.
Cry out in the darkness, He’ll meet you where you stand,
Give Him all the broken pieces in your hands.
The devil keeps sayin’, “You ain’t good enough, you can’t do it,”
But God’s sayin’, “Child, I’ll see you through it.”
You can’t live in the past—move ahead, stand firm on holy ground.
Yeah, the waves are always comin’…
But keep swimmin’, don’t drown.
(Bridge)
I put no trust in human effort,
Just in Christ and what He’s already done.
Rejected every lie that held me hostage,
And walked into His grace like a prodigal son.
I thank God in advance now—
Singin’, givin’, layin’ my life back down.
(Chorus)
When the waves come crashin’, keep swimmin’, don’t drown,
Look up to God when the whole world’s draggin’ you down.
Cry out in the darkness, He’ll meet you where you stand,
Give Him all the broken pieces in your hands.
The devil keeps sayin’, “You ain’t good enough, you can’t do it,”
But God’s sayin’, “Child, I’ll see you through it.”
You can’t live in the past—move ahead, stand firm on holy ground.
Yeah, the waves are always comin’…
But keep swimmin’, don’t
(Final Chorus)
When the waves come crashin’, keep swimmin’, don’t drown,
Look up to God when the whole world’s draggin’ you down.
Hope ain’t gone, it’s waitin’ to be found—
Just lift your eyes off the storm clouds.
The devil says, “You can’t,” but God says, “You’re mine,”
And He’ll show up right on time.
Yeah, the waves are always comin’…
But keep swimmin’, don’t drown.
(Outro)
People talk about what Jesus did—
But I’m livin’ proof He still is.
