there are experiences in life that are extremely painful
and we feel like we are going to fall apart, break and that we can’t breathe.

“Don’t let me fall, Lord, oh don’t let me fall.”
“I’m barely breathing and I’m about to, I’m about to break.”

“Will you hold me, Lord, for life?”

In contrast to the fear of not being able to breathe, the piece transitions to the steady heartbeat, which is heard and felt, with our head on His chest,
when we are held in the Lord’s embrace.
