Open up my eyes I pray Lord for just a little glimpse of you That's all I need All I've ever needed To see beyond myself, beyond this tiny little world At all your hands have made, With beauty and strength alone I can see you comin' to me now Ah, like a shimmering light A shimmering light on an open sea Barefoot on the water, laughin' at the ocean Like you were old friends And callin' out my name sayin' 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 Help me cut these bonds where I keep my spirit tied down All safe and dry... safe and dry and so afraid Let me come to you, let me run to you, While my heart's still beating, beating in my throat, With my sweaty palms and a mouth so dry Shakin' till 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 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... just let the water flow... let it go Oh, and keep your eyes on me You feel alive? Try turnin' circles... bend your knees And hold your hands up high Can ya feel the wind in your hair... with your eyes closed Take a breath of fresh air... feel the mist on your toes (look where we are)
