Lyrics:
Paddle out
And leave the sand on the shore
Further now
Dead weight can’t drag anymore
Can’t wait to catch a wave, won’t contemplate or care anymore
Ride it out
No worries, no stresses

I don’t need to stress all day, don’t need to treat myself this way
I’ve got a way to cast it out and heal my mind from fear and doubt
Just pray sincere and have some faith, God’s promise never comes too late
He’s always there to lift the load and guide us through life’s bumpy roads

Ride on that wave of faith, ride on that wave
Ride on that wave of faith, ride on that wave

Paddle out
And leave the sand on the shore
Further now
Dead weight can’t drag anymore
Can’t wait to catch a wave, won’t contemplate or care anymore
Ride it out
No worries, no stresses

I don’t need to stress all day, don’t need to treat myself this way
I’ve got a way to cast it out and heal my mind from fear and doubt
Just pray sincere and have some faith, God’s promise never comes too late
He’s always there to lift the load and guide us through life’s bumpy roads
