Donald Hokanson - Waterline Lyrics

Falling back I feel the water hit
Looking up the surface fades away
I've gone this far I'm going to commit
Cold sets in I'm sure this is the way

I'm ready to die
Goodbye discontent
I'm done with this life
Arrested descent
Feel his arms again
A rapid ascent
Sunlight filters in
Oh I never dreamt

I'd break through the water line
On my face I felt the sunshine
In my heart I was changed
On that day I was saved

I felt a new lease on life as I left
I cannot wait I feel like I've been blessed
I need to tell my family what happened
Drove back home don't know what to expect

Walking up to the steps
As I came into view
Why are you so wet
And just where were you
I stayed when you left
I had something to do
Had to do it myself
For it to be true

I break through the water line
On my face I felt the sunshine
In my heart I was changed
On that day I was saved

I was only sixteen (saved)
But I knew what it'd mean (saved)
To give my life to the Lord (saved)
And gain an eternal reward (saved)
