I’ve gotta keep the calm before the storm
I don’t want less
I don’t want more
Must bar the windows and the doors
To keep me safe to keep me warm


Yeah my life is what I’m fighting for
Can’t part the sea
Can’t reach the shore
And my voice becomes the driving force
I won’t let this pull me overboard


God keep my head above water
Don’t let me drown
It gets harder
I’ll meet you there at the altar
As I fall down to my knees
Don’t let me drown
Don’t let me drown


So pull me up from down below
‘Cause I’m underneath the undertow
Come dry me off and hold me close
I need you now I need you most


God keep my head above water
Don’t let me drown
It gets harder
I’ll meet you there at the altar
As I fall down to my knees
Don’t let me drown
Don’t let me drown
Don’t let me drown
Keep my head above water above water


And I can’t see in the stormy weather
I can’t seem to keep it all together
And I can’t swim the ocean like this forever
And I can’t breathe


God keep my head above water
I lose my breath at the bottom
Come rescue me
I’ll be waiting
I’m too young to fall asleep


God keep my head above water
Don’t let me drown
It gets harder
I’ll meet you there at the altar
As I fall down to my knees
Don’t let me drown
Don’t let me drown
Don’t let me drown
Keep my head above water above water

An amazing, beautiful, powerful, spiritual song from one of my favorite singers. If I understood the story correctly, she wrote it during her struggles with Lyme Disease.

The Lyric Video was released days ago.

Reading the lyrics, is Avril growing up?

This song is so beautiful...my 22 year old daughter has had some struggles, and through it she found her faith. She played this song for me yesterday when it dropped and said when she heard it she cried like a baby. Every time I think about it I weep. Powerful song.

Some people have their personal battles.

Some have their personal demons...

My sister has had Lyme for 30+ yrs. Doctors didn't recognize it then.

No antibiotics so it's in her CNS.

Facing one’s own mortality can often do that.

The thing that amazes is that, that girl was only 13 when she wrote and sang that song. BTW, she’s the 2016 AGT winner.
