Song Description
So many times we sit idly by and watch things happen and think someone should do something about that. But we don't want to get involved because it might mess up our cozy life or we may not think we can make a difference. IF God is leading us to do something we need to trust Him and do it. Get out of the stands and onto the field. Get off of the beach and into the water.

Lyrics
Why are you standing there?
Don't you know how to swim?
Alone and safe and dry
but it's time to jump in.
splashing all about
just trying to survive
you let go of fear
and your still alive
he lifts you up at your own pace
trust in his grace
life was easier up on the shore
wathcing life pass by
no pain to endure
it was simple then
not taking a stand
you lived your life for you
and dealt your own hand
doesn't he know how that makes you feel
you must believe
his love is real
and then you start to think
you figured it out
and life takes a sudden turn
and leaves you in doubt
just let go and trust in his grace
you get down on your knees with tears in your eyes
and with fear and restlessness you ask God why
there are things I'll never understand
things I can't explain
still a mystery to man
oh but I don't need to know
cause deep in my soul
I believe he is God and he is in control
and everything and everyone is in their place,
