Deep waters,
swallowing up souls
sinking into sins
bottomless hole.
Stuck in the muck,
with no way out
too many questions
fueling their doubt.
Waters of affliction,
bitter ~ so bitter
once faithful souls
now God quitters.
Rivers of worries,
lakes of mistakes
these drowning souls
forgot sin’s high stakes.
Sinking in despair,
going down and down
too frighten to turn
back to God around.
Deep waters,
life-giving streams
sin flooded souls . . .
Jesus wants to redeem!
~~~~~~~
But the wicked are like the
troubled sea, when it cannot rest,
whose waters cast up mire and dirt.
Let him know, that he which
converteth the sinner from
the error of his way shall
save a soul from death,
and shall hide a
multitude of sins.
