“Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)” Lyrics 

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 

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 Saviour 

  

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 Saviour 

  

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 Saviour 

  

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 Saviour 

  

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 Saviour 

  

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 Saviour 

  

Oh, Jesus, you're my God! 

 

I will call 

Upon Your name 

Keep my eyes 

Above the waves 

My soul will rest 

In Your embrace 

I am Yours 

And You are mine
