Oceans and waves

I struggle to swim in this vast ocean
Waves crash over me as I gasp for air
Rapidly moving waters sway me
Looking for a resting place
The struggle continues
Fighting the currents of this world
Resisting the pressures that face me
Pulling me under, yet not prevailing
Not my own fight, but the Greater One
All is well, and all is not
Violent forces uncontrolled by man
One chance to hold for dear life
A moment of peace, then back to battle
Not against flesh and blood
But oceans and waves
Of sin
Of death
Of fear
Of pain
Of hope
Of glory
Of peace
Mingled together for now, but soon apart
Brighter and lighter it will be
Hold on for dear life now
Guard your heart in truth
