Something Beautiful

Something Beautiful by NeedToBreathe

In your ocean, I'm ankle deep
I feel the waves crashin' on my feet
It's like I know where I need to be
But I can't figure out, yeah I can't figure out

Just how much air I will need to breathe
When your tide rushes over me
There's only one way to figure out
Will ya let me drown, will ya let me drown

Hey now, this is my desire
Consume me like a fire, 'cause I just want something beautiful
To touch me, I know that I'm in reach
'Cause I am down on my knees, I'm waiting for something beautiful
Oh, something beautiful

And the water is risin' quick
And for years I was scared of it
We can't be sure when it will subside
So I won't leave your side, no I can't leave your side

Hey now, this is my desire
Consume me like a fire, 'cause I just want something beautiful
To touch me, I know that I'm in reach
'Cause I am down on my knees, I'm waiting for something beautiful
Oh, something beautiful

In a daydream, I couldn't live like this
I wouldn't stop until I found something beautiful
When I wake up, and all I want, I have
You know its still not what I need
Something beautiful

Hey now, this is my desire
Consume me like a fire, 'cause I just want something beautiful
To touch me, I know that I'm in reach
'Cause I am down on my knees, I'm waiting for something beautiful
Oh, something beautiful


This song really grabbed me tonight. How many times do we look at our lives and say, "I just want something to go right! I want that something beautiful." Reality is, we can't find it on our own. We've got to go to the guy who created that something beautiful! And man, it's hard to really trust God, especially after so many people in life let us down. Is He going to let us drown? It's crazy to think that after we've been hurt so many times that the one person that we can't see, the person we have to have faith to believe his very existence, is the one we can trust the most. We are the safest with the one we can't fully understand. Now, I've only glimpsed beauty... but guys, this is where it is. This is the real deal. This is what you've been waiting for.

Oh and hey, the music video is pretty awesome too! Check it out on youtube:

  1. I love your thoughts! We so often blame God for everything others do or things that happen to us, instead we need to realize that Satan is working continually to draw us away from God.
