It’s not only at the start of the Christian life that some of us feel we are stepping out into the unknown. There are plenty of times along the journey where we are called to get out of the relative safety of the boat and, like Peter, walk across the water towards Jesus.
1. A shore, and a preacher calling. Will you leave your nets?
A door to the Father’s world. Will you knock and walk right in?
It’s a leap of faith,
It’s a jump into deep water,
It’s a call to seize the day.
It’s a step of hope,
On a journey through the darkness
As the Light of the World leads the way.
2. A voice in the night is speaking. Will you heed the call?
A sense that the Spirit’s wind is blowing. Will you hoist and spread your sails?
chorus
3. A Lord who knows you can walk on water if you trust in Him.
He’s there when you feel like you are sinking. You can reach and take his hand.
