wade in the water

WADE IN THE WATER
WADE IN THE WATER CHILDREN
WADE IN THE WATER
GOD'S GONNA TROUBLE THE WATER

Like the Israelites you've become comfortable in your chains
a voice in the desert is calling
yet you worry about the rain
and whether it will come
to wash away your pain
o children when will you learn
that all your souls long for
is found in Him
found in Him

WADE IN THE WATER...

All you see is what's right in front of you and you falter
paralyzed by fear of situations that seem impossible to alter
Who is your God?
He is the God that made Jericho's walls fall
with trumpet sound and dancing feet.
In Him the ocean depths and mountain heights meet

is anything too difficult for Him?

He makes water solid and river beds dry
He sings stars into place, knows every tear you cry
He makes feasts from crumbs
restores feeling to the numb
He calms the storms with one word

with one word

with one word He speaks breath into bones
calling forth an army of broken vessels
that shine brightly with His glory
scattering darkness as they sing His name

is anything too difficult for him?

WADE IN THE WATER...

Lift your eyes, look to the other side
catch a glimpse of the freedom that lies beyond
the wide open spaces of promise that He's calling you to
(there are no tightropes there)

God's gonna trouble the water
so jump right in
don't you want to be where He is moving?
something is stirring
'SEE I AM DOING A NEW THING'

so jump right in
jump right in
jump right in
