Songtexte
In the middle of the day, he turned to me
"Mom's not home right now," he said
I looked him in the eye, fear washing over me
For there was no denying, I knew just what he meant
I've heard fathers are supposed to love and protect
Girls are meant to dream their dreams
Instead, this nightmare goes on and on
I turn to You as I fall down on my knees
Give me strength; this life's too hard
I kneel before Your throne
Give me strength to stay right here
Until You call me home
Standing on the bridge so high above the water
The ocean's churning just like me
Tears run down my face as hope seeps out my soul
Should I walk into the current to finally be set free
Lord, help me with this turmoil inside of me
I want to live my young-girl dreams
Instead, this nightmare goes on and on
I turn to You as I fall down on my knees
Give me strength; this life's too hard
I kneel before Your throne
Give me strength to stay right here
Until You call me home
Help me, Lord
Save me, Lord
Keep me on the shore
But it hurts too deep, I can't go on
I want to go out to sea
Lord, help me now for the burden is too great
Save me from the depths before it is too late
Give me strength; this life's too hard
I kneel before Your throne
Give me strength to stay right here
Until You call me home
