Christian Poetry -27

Dive

Forces without push me deeper within
Struggling to survive the tide of my sin

Spun out of control in dark fog as I dive
Far too gone, but for You

I'm alive

Stretched and beaten, I am overcome
Think I am breathing but have come undone

Reach through the fog for some grip as I dive
Freefalling now, but with You

I'm alive

Pathetic wretch, prideful and driven
Without Your death, I am unforgiven

Without Your Life, I am taking a dive
Hopelessly lost, but in You

I'm alive

Smothering fog, thick darkest night
Bound and defeated I give up the fight

My feet hit the Rock, upending my life
Breathless and weeping, forever

alive…
