Lyrics
Open up my eyes, I pray

Lord, for just a little glimpse of you

That's all I need, it's all I've ever needed

To see beyond myself, beyond this tiny, little world

All your hands have made

With beauty and strength alone

I can see you comin' to me now

Oh, like a shimmerin' light

Shimmerin' light on an open sea

Barefoot on the water

Laughin' at the ocean

Like you were old friends

Callin' out my name

Saying join me now

(Chorus)

Strollin' on the water High over every care Strollin' on the water Sinking no longer Let me rise above the high tide I can do it, I'll do it, yeah I know where my strength comes from

Help me cut these bonds where I keep my spirit tied down

All safe and dry... safe and dry and so afraid

Let me come to you, let me run to you,

While my heart's still beating, beating in my throat,

With my sweaty palms and a mouth so dry

Shakin' till I can't stand still

All I'm askin', all I'm askin' is to

Let me cross that great divide between you and I

Only you can take me there, so take me there

(Chorus)

I know that you said

Follow me... just let the water flow... let it go

Oh, and keep your eyes on me

You feel alive?

Try turnin' circles... bend your knees

And hold your hands up high

Can ya feel the wind in your hair... with your eyes closed

Take a breath of fresh air... feel the mist on your toes

(look where we are)

(Chorus)
