Introduction
Shallow Water by Randy Travis feels like stepping into a memory, one you didn’t even know you had. There’s something about this song that stirs up a sense of calm and nostalgia, like a warm summer afternoon down by a quiet river. Randy’s voice is rich, deep, and full of heart, drawing you into a place where life moves a little slower, and everything feels just a bit more real.
The song taps into that universal feeling we all have—that need to take a step back from the noise and complexity of life and find some peace in simplicity. Through his unmistakable vocals, Randy brings a gentle reminder that sometimes, it’s in those “shallower” moments, the ones we often overlook, that we find the most clarity. Whether you’re a lifelong Randy fan or discovering him for the first time, Shallow Water will resonate with you, speaking to a longing we all feel for balance and tranquility.
Randy Travis has a way of making you feel like you’re sitting with an old friend, someone who’s been through the ups and downs and come out wiser on the other side. Shallow Water isn’t just a song; it’s a moment of reflection, a chance to breathe deeply, and perhaps, an invitation to see life from a new perspective.

Lyrics
I will not drown in shallow water
Not with your love within my reach
I did not come this far to falter
And will not rest until I’m free
You are the sun, you are the flower
You are the wind across the sea
And I will kneel here at your altar
And pray you’ll take my soul to keep
Oh, precious one, you are the mountain
You are the earth beneath my feet
In you we’re one now and forever
In you I find the love in me
Through your love my eyes are open
Through your love I’ll learn to see
And in your name my bread is broken
By your grace I’ll rest in peace
I will not drown in shallow water
Not with your love within my reach
I did not come this far to falter
And will not rest until I’m free
Through your love my eyes are open
Through your love I’ll learn to see
And in your name my bread is broken
By your grace I’ll rest in peace
I will not drown in shallow water
Not with your love within my reach
I did not come this far to falter
And will not rest until I’m free
I will not rest until I’m free
Until I’m free
