Down in the Lowlands*

The water is up to my neck
I am sinking in the deep
There is no foothold anymore
I'm very worn out from calling for help
My throat is hoarse and dry as a bone
My eyes have failed me from looking for you
Are you looking for me?

I'm down in the lowlands where the water is deep
Hear my cry, hear my shout, save me, save me

Could this be it, could I be drowing?
Have I failed to be heard by the One
Who can save me now?
My eyes have failed me from looking for you
Are you lookin for me?

Cause I'm down in the lowlands where the water is deep
Hear my cry, hear my shout, save me, save me.
