I Am Not As Though a Drowning Moth
I am not as though a drowning moth,
within the flooding flow.
Hopelessness can have no place,
within the ones who know.
Who am I to give all up,
when tried and tested through?
He didn't bring me from where I'd been,
for me to quit this too.
There is a purpose for my life.
Breath was not snatched away.
No exploding heart nor bleeding brain
was in the plans he made.
I will not be overcome,
for my God is with me.
Nothing shall overpower,
Christ, who won the victory.
