Lyrics

Written by Carl Hicks Jr. / SESAC

[Chorus – Full Choir, Tight Unison]
The water held his step
The water held his step
Peter left the boat
And the water held his step

Wind kept blowing
Waves stood high
But Jesus said, "Come"
And faith stepped outside

The water held his step
The water held his step
As long as he watched Jesus
The water held his step

[Bridge – Warm Stacked Harmonies]
One word
Come

One move
Step

One look
Faith

One road
Across the waves

The storm was still talking
But Jesus spoke louder

Peter saw the Savior
And walked across the water

Keep your eyes
Keep your eyes
Keep your eyes on Him

[Chorus – Choir Snaps, Unexpected Brass Hits]
The water held his step
The water held his step
He walked where fear said
No man could ever step

Then he saw the wind
And started going down

Jesus reached His hand
Before the sea could take him

The water held his step
The water held his step
When his eyes stayed on Jesus
The water held his step

[Bridge – Rhythmic Choir Changes]
Out the boat
On the word

Through the storm
He still heard

Faith rose
Feet moved

Fear came
Jesus proved

He may have started sinking
But he was never lost

The hand that called him forward
Would not let him drop

Why did you doubt?
Why did you fear?

The One who called you
Was already near

[Repetitive Run – Deep Pocket Groove]
Step out
Step out

Step out the boat

Step out
Step out

Trust what He spoke

One step
Two steps

Walking on the wave

One step
Two steps

Jesus made the way

Eyes up
Eyes up

Don't watch the storm

Eyes up
Eyes up

Look to the Lord

Reach down
Pull him up

Reach down
Pull him up

When Peter cried
Jesus pulled him up

Still held
Still held

Mercy still held him

Still held
Still held

The water could not keep him

[Choir Run – Tight Vocal Changes]
He called
Peter came

He walked
On Jesus' name

He feared
Jesus stayed

He sank
Jesus saved

Out the boat
Across the sea

Faith did what
Fear could not believe

Out the boat
Across the sea

One word from Jesus
Changed everything

[Outro – Smooth Choir Resolution]
The wind was strong
But His hand was stronger

The waves were high
But His reach went farther

Peter stepped out
And learned in the storm

The One who says "Come"
Will carry you home

The water held his step
The water held his step

[Final Choir Hit]
Keep your eyes on Him!
