I was only ankle deep,
When I first stepped in,
The waters came on,
Forgiving my sin.
Then up to my knees,
With another step,
I learned of his joy,
And with joy I wept.
Up to my waist,
I found myself,
Learning to lean on Him,
Finding out about His wealth.
Over my head,
I jumped in,
Swimming in His love,
And His power from within.
