Just Mitch & I Writing for #theABYSS: "Sinking Deep" is a song from my NEW ALBUM #theABYSS (due out in October 2015) about how easy it is for worldly things to entice us out into the deep.  At first, its cool cause we think we've got a handle on it.  Then the drifting becomes sinking, and the struggle to get back to the shores of our firm foundation is an intense battle! The current is STRONG! It pulls us further...and deeper than we ever intended to go.

However, a turn of events occur when you're lost out in the deep...just when you think you're sinking to the bottom; you realize your cries to get out of this dark place are heard and you're really in the depths of God's GRACE!  Sinking deeper in His LOVE! Rescued from the void!  

As the word says in Psalm 139: 

"Is there anyplace I can go to avoid your Spirit? to be out of your sight?
If I climb to the sky, you’re there If I go underground, you’re there! If I flew on morning’s wing to the far western horizon, You’d find me in a minute—you’re already there waiting!  Then I said to myself, “Oh, he even sees me in the dark! At night I’m immersed in the light!” It’s a fact: darkness isn’t dark to you; night and day, darkness and light, they’re all the same to you."

Looking forward to sharing more of #theAbyss with you! Love U! GIEL!

SINKING DEEP (Nov 21 2:09am)

Verse 1
How swiftly 
your current pulls me out to sea, Your 
strong waves have their way with me

So far now, my 
feet can hardly touch the ground
So far out 
I can barely see dry land

PRE HOOK
Oh oh
Didn't mind at first the drifting
Oh oh
But then I started sinking
repeat

Verse 2
Like heavy weights this
Darkness that surrounded me and

The still void that tried
To steal my soul 

Asked me dance with 
thoughts of lust and dreary ends, I

Said goodbye
And sink to the bottom floor

Then Oh oh
I realize that I was drifting
Oh oh
Before I knew it I was sinking

Oh oh
Didn't mind at first the drifting
Oh oh
Thought I Had it under control
but now I'm sinking

I'm sinking deeper

CHORUS
Started sinking deeper
Sinking Deeper, and deeper
Repeat

Verse 3 
Though I walked through
The shadows of my darkest nights, 

I found rest 
in the deepest part of me

No longer bound
Somehow 
This desperate love has searched me out and

Though I ran, He followed me    
(AGAIN) I ran, but He followed me
Though I ran, He followed me 

Sinking deep is
WHERE YOU FOUND ME
