You Call Me

^“Since we are living by the Spirit, let us follow the Spirit’s leading in every part of our lives” (Galatians 5:25, NLT).

Lord, you call me to walk by faith and not what I see. You tell me to trust you—to believe that no matter what my eyes see or ears hear that you are with me when I step out into the unknown to follow you. Teach me what it means to live by your Spirit and to follow your leading in every part of my life. I will follow as you lead for I know that it is in the depths of this great unknown that I find you. I launch out into the depths of your grace realizing that although my feet may fail there is no failure in your purpose. Your unknown is the most certain thing I have ever known.

You call me out upon the waters
The great unknown where feet may fail
And there I find You in the mystery
In oceans deep
My faith will stand

And I will call upon Your name
And keep my eyes above the waves
When oceans rise
My soul will rest in Your embrace
For I am Yours and You are mine 

Your grace abounds in deepest waters
Your sovereign hand
Will be my guide
Where feet may fail and fear surrounds me
You've never failed and You won't start now

So I will call upon Your name
And keep my eyes above the waves
When oceans rise
My soul will rest in Your embrace
For I am Yours and You are mine

Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders
Let me walk upon the waters
Wherever You would call me
Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander
And my faith will be made stronger
In the presence of my Savior
