Marthame Sanders - Help Me (Acoustic) lyrics

Staring towards the shore, I can't see it anymore; Wondering if perfect love can cast out perfect fear Boats keep on filling, because war still makes a k**ing Home told us to leave, said, "Anywhere is safer than here." d**h and tortures by human vultures Sent us running, screaming for the smuggler's dirty hands And as we take on water, abandoned to the slaughter It's ringing in my ears: "The sea is safer than the land." [Chorus] Help me to breathe again; facing down the flood, spitting out the blood Help me believe again; knowing this will pa**, because nothing's meant to last; Fingers slowly slipping, but still, I'm holding fast Losing purpose, gasping at the surface Burning lungs like fire where the earth and sea collide; Not sure what I'm worth, more or less than dirt; Beaches choked with litter of bodies washed up by the tide [Chorus] Help me to breathe again; face down in the flood, choking on the blood Help me believe again; praying this to pa**, because nothing's meant to last; Fingers slowly slipping, my time is fading fast Oh, Noah: in your boat are two of every kind. Please make room for one more man Blessed Jesus: if it pleases, pull me aboard. Calm the storms and take my hand Holy Moses: all I know is you can part the waters, pave my way to Promised Land [Chorus] Help me to breathe again; sinking beneath the flood, sick of all the blood Help me believe again; now my time is past, because nothing's meant to last Help me to breathe again; surrender to the flood
