Lyrics
eleven men besides myself, in a boat both small and light..
pushed off for heavens gate in the first watch of the night..
a storm blew up at midnight comming hard down on the prow..
we started losing headway shipping water stern and bow..
when someone shouted " hey, look to starboard on the sea!"..
the men screamed out in terror at the form we all could see..
A man was walking on the water, and we trembled, cried and prayed..
Till he stopped and turned and spoke to us, "It is I , dont be affraid"..
I shouted out to jesus, "If its you, then call to me"..
"And tell me how to come to you and walk across the sea"..
Without a seconds thought he looked and answered "come"..
My insides turned to water and my mind went blank and numb..
I climbed across the gunwhale, looking straight into his eyes..
but long before I reached his side, the wind began to rise..
I forgot him in an instant, and I sank just like a stone..
I cried out " jesus, save me!" and his hand was on my own..
"Oh man of little faith," he said "what made you doubt my word..
"Have you been this long without me, without knowing what youve heard?"
we climbed into the boat all at once the wind was gone..
the sea turned calm and gentle and the day began to dawn..
We knelt amazed and worshipped him for the power he displayed..
For all that we had seen had left us wondering and dismayed..
It was not till after the pentecost I could really understand..
Cuz even when I doubted him, he never let go of my hand..
