Feet Wet (matt. 14:22)
~Stephen Speaks

standing at the water's edge, I feel a trembling fear
as the waves crash 'round my ankles feel the thunder in my ear
i see the change is coming, the wind is at my back
but doubt overtakes me and my eyes turn to black
my past lurks behind me, keeping me on guard
I don't want to chance it, these steps are just too hard
I know He's behind me but what can i do
I'm frail, i'm human, and i don't want to fail You

{ I can't walk on water with these dirty feet
but He can walk on water and He'll carry me}
so put your arms around me carry me to sea
waves knock against me but I know I'm free
from death and loneliness, darkness, despair
this life is choppy but I don't care
