Drop the anchor leave me here
I don't deserve to move
For too long now I've played pretend
There was something I could do
But now the wind has left my sails
And the water's deep and wide
And I am stranded here, waiting
Hoping beyond hope, and praying
That maybe You will come, and save me
From my floating
I left the island of my pride
For the land where You are King
But I cannot control this vessel
And I can't command the wind
But how long must I drift along
And how long 'till I sink
'Cause I am stranded here, waiting
Hoping beyond hope, and praying
That maybe You will come, and save me
From my floating
I am calling out
Can you hear me now
Please don't let me drown
I'm not the first to feel this way
Many more have gone before
Learned to sail the sea of faith
With the hope of a distant shore
Dreaming of a land they'd never seen
But still they called it home
I am stranded here, waiting
Hoping beyond hope, and praying
That maybe You will come, and save me
From my floating
'Cause I am waiting
And I am praying
And maybe You will come, and save me
From my floating
