I Jumped Off A Ledge

Picture
I jumped off a ledge
10,000 feet high
I'm starting to panic
I'm not ready to die

Won't someone catch me?
Doesn't anyone see?
The momentum is gaining
My faith is starting to flee

Life was going just fine,
Not terrible, not great
I was very content
With an ordinary fate

But God had a plan
He asked me to leap
I knew I'd be fine,
My safety He'd keep

It sounded so easy
"Just jump, you'll be fine"
But it feels like years
Did He lose track of time?

I want to be strong
I want to be faithful
But I'm scared and weak
I feel like Cain, not Abel

I'm desperate, I'm lonely
I'm hungry, I'm tired
Where is my refuge?
I'm the ox in the mire

I don't hear you, God
I don't feel you or see you
Is it my surrender you want?
To you I will cling to!

Forgive my doubts
Your ways are not mine
This leap is a part
Of Your grand design

I'll trust in Your timing
I'll patiently wait
The rescue I'm promised
Doesn't need a set date

I jumped off a ledge
10,000 feet high
My God will save me
He will teach me to fly
