Walking On Water

Walking On Water
© 1999 Elton G. Witt
Jesus put his disciples in a boat while he went to pray
But a great big wind came up and threatened to blow them away
They were afraid that they would sink
Into the murky darkness, black as ink
They let their doubts into their minds
"Oh ye of little faith," but all was fine
Jesus came out, up to the boat walking on water
Peter said to Jesus if that’s really you then call for me to come
Jesus said "Come on Pete," so Peter got out and started to run
But he was afraid and started to sink
Into the murky darkness, black as ink
He let his doubts into his mind
"Oh ye of little faith," but all was fine
Jesus and Peter went hand-and-hand walking on water
(Bridge)
Why oh why can’t I find my faith in this heart?
I go searching in circles and come back to the start
And in my dreams I never falter
Every path leads me to the altar
And God’s sons and daughters go walking on water
The moral of this story is obvious to see
Jesus said whatever I do you can do just as easily
Just don’t be afraid that you might sink
Into the murky darkness, black as ink
Don’t let those doubts into your mind
"Oh ye of little faith," you know all is fine
You can go out into this world walking on water
