“Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)”
Matt Crocker | Joel Houston | Salomon Ligthelm
You call me up-on the waters, The great unknown where feet may fail
And there I find You in the myst’ry In Oceans deep – My faith will stand.
And I will call up on Your name And keep my eyes above the waves.
When oceans rise My soul will rest in Your embrace
For I am Yours And You are mine.
Your grace abounds – in deepest waters Your sov’reign hand – will be my guide
Where feet may fail – and fear surrounds me You’ve never failed
and You won’t start now
And I will call up on Your name And keep my eyes above the waves.
When oceans rise My soul will rest in Your embrace
For I am Yours And You are mine.
Spirit lead me Where my trust is without borders,
Let me walk upon the waters Wherever You would call me.
Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander
And my faith will be made stronger In the presence of my Saviour
(Repeat)
And I will call up on Your name And keep my eyes above the waves.
When oceans rise My soul will rest in Your embrace
For I am Yours And You are mine.
