Oh, what I would do To have the kind of faith it takes To climb out of this boat I'm in Onto the crashing waves To step out of my comfort zone Into the realm of the unknown Where Jesus is, And He's holding out His hand But the waves are calling out my name And they laugh at me Reminding me of all the times I've tried before and failed The waves they keep on telling me Time and time again "boy, you'll never win, You'll never win, You'll never win." Oh, what I would do To have the kind of strength it takes To stand before a giant With just a sling and stone Surrounded by the sound Of a thousand warriors Shaking in their armour Wishing they'd have had the strength to stand But the giant's calling out My name and he laughs at me Reminding me of all the times I've tried before and failed The giant keeps on telling me Time and time again "boy you'll never win, You'll never win, You'll never win." But the stone was just the right size To take the giant down And the waves don't seem so high When I'm standing on top of them looking down And I'd soar with the wings of eagles If I could just ignore the sound Of the waves and the giants, The waves and the giants in my mind Lord, you've not given me a spirit of fear But of power and of love, And of a sound mind So from now on, I won't let the tempter's lies Turn my eyes away from the prize That you have set before me. That you have set before me.
