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 [chorus again]
