The waters saw you, lord, the coastlands trembled 
 Through the mighty sea you made your way 
 Though your footsteps were unseen 
 In the night you came to me 
 While the boat was tossing in the waves 
    Are you but a ghost?’ I cried in terror 
 ‘Take courage, it is I. Don’t be afraid 
 ‘Lord, if it’s you, command I come 
 And walk upon the water now 
 You whom even wind and seas obey   
 He said, ‘come to me and walk upon the water 
 Come in faith my grace will be enough 
 If you believe, you’ll come to know love’s power 
 Come to me, and I will hold you up   
 I held the boat’s edge, putting one leg over 
 The sea was dancing underneath my feet 
 I looked to you and I let go of everything I claim to know 
 Carried by the grace you’ve given me   
 But can I really walk upon this water? 
 The wind is strong and I am so afraid 
 My faith is weak, lord, save me with your power 
 I am sinking deep into the waves   
 You raised your hand and stretched it out to save me 
 The sea was parted underneath your gaze 
 You lifted me up from waters wild 
 You claimed me as your child 
 Saying, ‘why’d you doubt, o you of little faith?   
 Lord, you brought me out of egypt through the waters 
 You baptized me with power to believe 
 Truly, you’re the son of God, lord Jesus 
 Keep me in the harbor of your peace 
 Be still my soul, for God can do all things
