Strollin' On The Water

[computer voice]

(During the fourth watch of the night, Jesus went out to them, walking on the lake. When the disciples saw him walking on the lake, they were terrified. 'It is a ghost," they said, and cried out in fear. But Jesus said to them, "Take courage. It is I, don't be afraid," don't be afraid, don't be afraid...)

Open up my eyes, I pray

Lord, for just a little glimpse of you

That's all I need, it's all I've ever needed

To see beyond myself, beyond this tiny, little world

All your hands have made

With beauty and strength alone

I can see you comin' to me now

Oh, like a shimmerin' light

Shimmerin' light on an open sea

Barefoot on the water

Laughin' at the ocean

Like you were old friends

Callin' out my name

Saying join me now

Strollin' on the water

High over every care

Strollin' on the water

Sinking no longer

Let me rise above the high tide

I can do it, I'll do it, yeah

I know where my strength comes from

Do do do do do do, do do do do do do, do do do do do do

Help me cut these bonds where I keep my spirit tied

All safe and dry

Safe and dry, but so afraid

Let me come to you

Let me run to you

With my heart still beating

Beating in my throat

With my sweaty palms and mouth so dry

Shakin' 'til I can't stand still

All I'm askin'

All I'm askin' is to let me cross

That great divide between you and I

Only you can take me there

So take me there, yeah!

Strollin' on the water

High over every care

Strollin' on the water

Sinking no longer

Let me rise above the high tide

I can do it, I'll do it, yeah

I know that you said, "follow me"
