Story behind the song

When we're sinking deep in the mire and God is reaching out to rescue us, why do we fight him off?  Is it just our nature to not surrender?  Sometimes when people are drowning, out of panic they fight with their rescuers.  I've done that to God at different points in my life, thinking I knew how to solve the problem and all the while making things worse for myself.  I hate seeing friends go through the same thing.  Thats what this song is about.  Surrender to the Rescuer.

Mandy Booth - background vocals

Lyrics

Its easy to pretend and 
Convince yourself  you're not sinking
The facts speak for themselves
Even when you're by yourself
On the deep end up to your neck
You're feet they start slippin
The water it starts creeping 
Over your mouth
There's no time to shout out
     
 But He sees you when no one sees you
      When you're too deep to shout
      He's reaching out
      But you keep fighting the hands
      That were pierced for your behalf
      And now you're slippin away
      Under the water into the grave

Beauty only deep as your skin
Corrupted by the nature of sin
Can't hide the leper's sores
But you can reach for the cure
And that's Jesus
He's reaching for you
Your will it starts breaking
The water it starts overtaking you
There's only one to hold on to

      And He sees you when no one sees you
      When you're too deep to shout
      He's reaching out
      But you keep fighting the hands
      That were pierced for your behalf
      And now you're slippin away
      Under the water into the grave

      He lifted me, He lifted me 
      From the drowning waters
      He lifted me   
      And He'll lift you like He did me
      He'll pull you through the pain
      And the misery
   
      He lifted me, He lifted me 
      From the drowning waters
      He lifted me   
      And He'll lift you like He did me
      It was love that lifted me
   
      Our will our way
      Our guilt our shame
      His will His way
      Our past done away
