I’ve been leading worship for around 10 years….but honestly can’t tell you how i got where i am today other than to say its been a series of God orchestrated events and His will in my life – despite how often i try to get in the way! I feel crazy priviledged to be doing this…cause it doesnt add up most of the time.
I remember meeting my wife Anisa & her sharing with me what worship was…like really was…not what i thought at all. It had nothing to do with “christian” songs or going to church. There was a move of worship and music for worship happening world wide that i knew nothing about. She was instrumental in God’s plan! We got married 3+ years later and 3 years after that….WELCOME AVA TRUTH!!!
My wife and I view the ministry I am a part of as a family thing – we are in this together & are committed to what God has called us to for as long as He uses us!
There is NO ministry greater than the one I have been given with my family!
I love family.
I love serving God’s kingdom.
I love leading worship, writing songs & above all…loving His people!
I believe in the local church & I long to see the church being the salt & light God has called us to be!
If i’m not writing songs…i’m changing diapers….its the new cool thing to be doing!
Over And Over
Casey Darnell Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
With my back to the sea
At the end of my own strength
Facing my enemies
When I'm all out of answers
Out of my comfort zone
I could swim in my own fear
Or let you take control
You always come through
You prove it to me over, over, and over
Jesus it's you
You always come trough
You prove it to me over, over
Over, and over again
When I'm thrown in the fire
And I barely can breathe
The only thing that will burn up
Are the ropes holding me
When all I've got are questions
(All these questions)
And the promises made
(And the promises made)
Well, I will choose to believe that
(I believe)
You are the only way
I'm trusting in you
You always come through
You prove it to me over, over, and over
Jesus it's you
You always come trough
You prove it to me over, over
Over, and over again
And again, and again, and again
And again, and again
At the edge of the water
With my back to the sea
I know I'm not here on my own strength (No, no)
You are right here with me
I'm trusting in you
You always come through
You prove it to me over, over, and over
Jesus it's you
You always come trough
You prove it to me over
Over, and over
That's just what you do
You always come through
You prove it to me over, over, and over
Jesus it's you
You prove it to me over, over
Over, and over again
And over again
"Over and Over" by Casey Darnell is a song about trusting in God's strength in the face of adversity. The lyrics describe a situation where the singer's own strength has failed, and they are facing seemingly insurmountable obstacles. However, instead of giving in to fear and despair, the singer chooses to trust in Jesus and let Him take control. Through repeated reminders of His faithfulness, the singer gains the courage to face their situation with hope and determination.
The first verse sets the scene of the song, with the singer standing at the edge of the water with their back to the sea. This evokes a sense of vulnerability and isolation, as they face their problems alone. However, the chorus brings a message of comfort and reassurance, as the singer declares their trust in God and His ability to come through for them, "over and over again." The second verse adds more detail to the situation, describing a moment of intense struggle where the singer feels like they can barely breathe. Despite this, they remain steadfast in their belief that God is with them and will see them through.
Overall, "Over and Over" is a powerful song that speaks to the human experience of facing overwhelming challenges and finding strength in faith. Through its lyrics, the song offers a message of hope and resilience, reminding listeners that even in our darkest moments, we can trust in God's love and grace to guide us through.

At the edge of the water
Standing on the shorelines
With my back to the sea
Facing away from the ocean
At the end of my own strength
Having exhausted my own power
Facing my enemies
Confronting those who oppose me
When I'm all out of answers
When I have no solutions left
Out of my comfort zone
Outside of my usual surroundings
I could swim in my own fear
I could be consumed by my own anxieties
Or let you take control
Or allow God to guide me
I'm trusting in you
I am placing my faith in God
You always come through
God is always reliable
You prove it to me over, over, and over
God has repeatedly demonstrated His faithfulness
Jesus it's you
Jesus is the source of hope and salvation
When I'm thrown in the fire
When I face difficult trials
And I barely can breathe
And I struggle to endure
The only thing that will burn up
The only thing that can be destroyed
Are the ropes holding me
Are the constraints binding me
When all I've got are questions
When I have many uncertainties
(All these questions)
Asking for direction and guidance
And the promises made
And relying on God's assurances
(And the promises made)
Remembering God's pledges
Well, I will choose to believe that
I decide to have faith in the Lord
(I believe)
Trusting in God's plans
You are the only way
God is the sole path to salvation
And again, and again, and again
Repeatedly, continually
I know I'm not here on my own strength (No, no)
Acknowledging dependence on God
You are right here with me
God is present and supporting me
That's just what you do
God is faithful and dependable

The multi-track has the piano part split out as a separate MP3 file but if you want charts to play the song yourself the chart kit would be your best choice.
