"Storms Overhead, click, tick boom!!!"

click... tick... boom... click... tick... boom... The world's a blur, a hurricane, A thousand thoughts like driving rain. I'm trying hard to keep my head, Above the words the storm has said. The voice says "Come," I know it's You, But all I see is gray and blue. click... tick... boom... That's the doubt, that's the fear, that's the crash. The clock is running, counting down too fast. I know You're there, a steady hand, a light, But I'm still lost in this unending night. I'm so distracted by the waves, And every fear my mind has saved. The bass is heavy, deep and low, A pulsing beat that makes me slow. My feet are tangled in the tide, With nowhere left for me to hide. I took a step, a fleeting grace, But looked away from Your sweet face. The smallest waves, they take their toll. click... tick... boom... That's the doubt, that's the fear, that's the crash. The clock is running, counting down too fast. I know You're there, a steady hand, a light, But I'm still lost in this unending night. I'm so distracted by the waves, And every fear my mind has saved. I know You're here, a steady hand, Above this treacherous, sinking sand. I need to rise above the sound, With faith, where solid ground is found. Just close my eyes and reach for You, And break on through this dark subdue. click... tick.. boom...—The world explodes, a final crash, Before I'm gone in just a flash. click... tick... boom...—A silent pause, a moment still, Your hand is there, against my will. click... tick... boom...—I feel the grace, the strength, the peace, And finally, the storm can cease. ©2025 By Matthew E Treviño
