Who is JCFaith?

No more drowning

I was drowning in an ocean of fear
Waves were pushing me under the cold and dark waters
Not a soul replied, none reached out their hand at my shout
None believed me for I was the one in doubt

I thought I was strong,
Placing trust in my own two feet
But as I stepped out on my own,
I sank and started to drown.

But then You called out my name
And the water and distance beneath my feet
Made place for Your Rock
And You lifte me high when I replied:

Jesus! I don't want to believe in myself anymore
No more trusting in my own feet to carry me
My trust I place in You , O Lord,
For You're the One that set me free

As things went well and hours turned to days,
I forgot when once I fell beneath waves
Back in those days
When I trusted in own foolish ways

But as the sinking feeling returned,
and I stepped out on waters alone
You called out my name and as I turned
I remembered and cried:

Jesus! I don't want to believe in myself anymore
No more trusting in my own feet to carry me
My trust I place in You , O Lord,
For You're the One that set me free
