Silently going under Quietly going down Longing for shallow waters Desperate for solid ground She once went to parties Played Ken and Barbies And the flag was red, white and blue Her mom bought her dresses Cleaned up her messes And some things she never outgrew But she knew what she wanted to do She's silently going under Quietly going down Longing for shallow waters Desperate for solid ground Now the picture has faded And bright hues have shaded And she wonders what was it she knew The TV's persuading
And she's hesitating For someone to help her get through As of now, she hasn't a clue She's silently going under Quietly going down Longing for shallow waters Desperate for solid ground Jesus said, "My yoke is easy And My burden is light" He quietly reaches under Graciously reaches down He pulls you to shallow waters And puts you on solid ground If you're silently going under He'll put you on solid ground If you're silently going under Let Him put you on solid ground
