jump and know he won’t let you fall
just jump
leave the fear on the ledge
leave your cares on the ledge
jump
take it all with you
the fear
the worries
the concerns
jump
you won’t regret it
you won’t understand it
if you trust in your father
oh man it will be the dive you needed
the blessings that are proceeded
jump
high into the abyss
jump and know that the air won’t be calm
you could do no wrong
when you jump
if you do
imagine the old you’ll leave behind
the old you could understand this crime
jump
give the old something to be proud of
all the times you were worried
all the people who never cared
they no longer matter
because your father was always there
breathe
aren’t you glad you can do that on your own
December 2023 was a time when you truly couldn’t do it alone
oh my have you come far
the air is sweeter and nothing seems too hard
breathe
take in all that you have gained from this leap
breathe out the lessons and let them be pavement at your feet
your father has blessed you with a new kind of air
now is the time to not look back
so don’t you dare
just imagine when your feet hits the ground
all the faith you have will be so sound
remember when this was a challenge for you
your hand was shaky
and you didn’t know what to do
you were scared to run
you were scared to stand but now you are different because of the great I am
oh how the sky never saw you coming
it laughed when it thought you hit the limit
you pushed even further
you can now go the distance
this lesson came hard and it was rough but my girl you don’t have to prove you are more than enough
so now is the time where we celebrate that you’re still here
It’s 365 days girl
time to scream IM STILL HERE
shame the devil and cast down each care
my GOD has smiled on me
and I feel so strong.
pop the bubbly and start the band
I have made it a whole year and I can’t wait to complete God’s plan
I doing the things I never dreamed
I am becoming the girl they’d never see
I have the support of those I love
My prayers were answered
and guess what?
God’s not done
I wonder what it will all look like in the end
God wants what I want
times one million and ten
His will be done
of this I am sure
praises for the new year
and all I will endure
I will be exalted in his name
any mountain I face will be put to shame
it’s going to be a good day because he says it will
I will be open and available, so whom shall I fear?
I used to dream of the future and what it’ll look like
but my faith is built different
so I’m ready for anything that might bite
The future has so much promise and blessing waiting on the other side
it’s like a chess game god is moving things to the side
I trust him so I will jump into the unknown
cheers to the leap of 2025
the risk of faith feels like home.
