Walk on Water, a song

Another song from my new album, Accidentals, this tune, called "Walk on Water," is a song I wrote the summer my family and I sold everything and moved from Alberta to Saskatchewan so I could study to become a pastor.  It was a real "step out of the boat" moment for me, and the song was my attempt to express both the trepidation and the anticipation I had as we started this new chapter of our journey with Jesus.




I will walk on water,
if you ask me to
I will wander the white waves and
Wade through the storm to walk next to you

I know that you have sent me
Without a wallet or shoes
And though the waves crash around me
I will walk them with you

I will walk on water,
if you ask me to
I will wander the white waves and
Wade through the storm to walk next to you

I know that you have sent me
A lamb surrounded by wolves
I know that you will make
As shrewd as a snake but as pure as a dove

I will walk on water,
if you ask me to
I will wander the white waves and
Wade through the storm to walk next to you

So now, I leave my people
Turn from my home and my land
The road winds narrow and steep, o
But I’m led by your loving hand
