[Spoken Intro - Female, soft and intimate] Dear God… I think we need to talk. [Verse 1 - Conversational, emotional] I was so lost. I was screaming. Screaming and screaming for it all to stop. I laid on the bathroom floor feeling completely empty. And I said… Dear God… Please help me. [Verse 2 - Gentle rhythmic delivery] I was in my darkest hour. But I held onto my faith. Every day I try my best to choose faith over fear and anxiety. But unfortunately… That’s just not always in the cards for me. God knows the miles I’ve walked in these shoes. He knows my heart and where it goes. [Pre-Chorus - Gentle melodic build] Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Slow down… [Chorus - Warm, hopeful, easy to sing] Not every ship is sinking. Have faith, honey. This is temporary. Not every ship is sinking. Hold on. Hold on. Slow down… [Verse 3 - Conversational, building confidence] I felt buried in rocks. But He helped me every day. I didn’t ask… I just prayed. Puzzled with passion. And purpose for healing. Finding my faith again somewhere along the way. Can’t stop now. [Bridge - Emotional, grateful, restrained] God… Thank You. For helping me back up off that floor. For my family. For the village I have all around me. I’m beyond blessed. And knowing God’s got me… That feels a little different to me. [Final Chorus - Gentle, uplifting] Not every ship is sinking. Have faith, honey. This is temporary. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Slow down… [Outro - Soft spoken voice, instruments fading] I’m still learning. Still finding my way. But this time… I’m holding onto my faith. Amen.
