[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" -acap
