Psalm 69 - Waters Rising | YAHUAH, My Deliverer

Psalm 69 is the cry of someone who feels like they are drowning. “Waters Rising” begins in a place where strength is failing, sorrow is heavy, and the heart is calling out for rescue. Save me, O YAHUAH. The waters keep rising. This Psalm does not hide the pain. The rejection. The exhaustion. The wounds no one else sees. The feeling of sinking where there is nowhere left to stand. And still, the heart reaches upward. When the waters keep rising… You’re still holding me. Psalm 69 reminds us that YAHUAH sees every hidden wound and hears every cry, even when the answer feels delayed. The storm may continue. The night may feel long. But His presence has not left. The waters keep rising… But so does my hope. The darkness keeps pressing… But so does Your light. This song is for anyone who has ever felt overwhelmed by sorrow and still chosen to keep calling His Name. Not because the pain is gone. Because YAHUAH is still there. He is the Deliverer. The Refuge. The Hope. The Rock beneath the flood. And one day, the waters will be still. ✨ LIKE if this Psalm speaks to where you are 💬 COMMENT: YAHUAH, YOU ARE MY DELIVERER 🤍 SHARE it with someone who feels overwhelmed by the storm 🔔 SUBSCRIBE and follow The Psalms Project as we continue through Book 2. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ LYRICS — PSALM 69: WATERS RISING Save me, O YAHUAH. The waters Keep rising. I’m sinking Where I cannot stand. Every breath Feels heavy. Every step Feels farther. Still… I reach For Your hand. Those who hate me Without reason Gather like The crashing sea. Still I know The One who formed me Has never Stopped seeing me. ⸻ My strength Has faded. My voice Has grown weak. Still my heart Keeps calling Your Name. ⸻ When the waters Keep rising… You’re still Holding me. When the waves Are crashing… You’re still My peace. Though I sink Beneath the sorrow… Hope is reaching Down for me. YAHUAH… You have never Stopped hearing My cry. ⸻ You know The wounds I’ve carried. The tears I’ve never shown. Nothing hidden Stays unseen Before Your throne. My zeal Has cost me dearly. Still I’d choose Your ways again. Better every scar That honors You Than comfort Without You. ⸻ You know My weakness. You know My frame. Still You call Me by My name. ⸻ When the waters Keep rising… You’re still Holding me. When the night Feels endless… You’re still My song. Even if The storm Still rages… Your love Has carried me This far. YAHUAH… You’ll carry Me home. ⸻ The waters… Keep rising… But so does My hope. The darkness… Keeps pressing… But so does Your light. The world May leave me… You never Will. The world May fail me… You never Have. My eyes Are fixed On You. ⸻ When the waters Keep rising… I’ll keep Trusting You. When my strength Is gone… You’ll be Enough. You’ve heard Every prayer. You’ve counted Every tear. You’ve never Turned away From me. YAHUAH… My Deliverer. My Refuge. My Hope. ⸻ One day These waters Will be still. One day These tears Will end. Until then… I’ll keep Calling Your Name. Because… You have always Answered. YAHUAH… My Rock. My Salvation. AMATH. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ GUTS OF GRACE The Psalms Project — Book 2 | Psalms 42–72 Scripture restored through song. © 2026 Guts of Grace. All rights reserved.
