COMMENTARY
This song, looking back, was written out of desperation for God to intervene in what seemed like a hopeless situation at the time. I was in a struggle between deciding to believe what one of my best friends thought was God's will and what I was hearing myself as God's will. I thought at the time of writing that fulfilling what I was hearing from God was going to cost my friendship, but God came through and "rescued me from this ocean of tears."
