[Intro]
Waited by the shoreline of my doubt, I breathe in hollow air.
The tide keeps counting every fault, I whisper a prayer to repair.
[Verse 1]
I wear my guilt like a winter coat, heavy on my weathered skin,
A hunger for your mercy burns but I keep letting the fear in.
I bow my head to the bottom of my chest, where truth begins to ache,
Pretend I’m standing tall, but every breath keeps muting what I break.
[Pre-Chorus]
If forgiveness comes as grace, I’ll rise with a slower flame,
If worthiness is earned in scars, I’ll still call out your name.
[Chorus]
I am waiting for you to pull me through the open night,
To flood the dark with mercy till I’m lighter on the light.
Forgive my failure, mend the vows I thought could drown,
I’m still here, I’m still yours, I’m trying to be found.
[Verse 2]
The room grows quiet as a vow I tremble to recite,
A fragile thread of faith that trembles but won’t let go of the night.
I’ve sunk so far I hear the shoreless call of your design,
If you’ll forgive, I’ll rise again and keep your heart in mine.
[Pre-Chorus]
If forgiveness comes as grace, I’ll rise with a slower flame,
If worthiness is earned in scars, I’ll still call out your name.
[Chorus]
I am waiting for you to pull me through the open night,
To flood the dark with mercy till I’m lighter on the light.
Forgive my failure, mend the vows I thought could drown,
I’m still here, I’m still yours, I’m trying to be found.
[Bridge]
I won’t pretend the river isn’t heavy, I won’t pretend I’m fine—
I’ll carry every weight beside your mercy, till I’m yours and mine.
[Chorus]
I am waiting for you to pull me through the open night,
To flood the dark with mercy till I’m lighter on the light.
Forgive my failure, mend the vows I thought could drown,
I’m still here, I’m still yours, I’m trying to be found.
[Outro]
If grace is patient, I’ll learn to breathe at your pace,
Till worth and mercy meet again in your forgiving grace.
