He steps up to the podium,
As they place the honors around his neck
He’s trained for years, pouring out blood, sweat and tears
With the hope of earning this kind of respect
But something turns his mind to Jesus
And how he used to race for Him
Then all these years seem like garbage
And disappointment wells up from inside of him
(Chorus)
Wondering, “What could I be if You had Your way with me
Could I run across the water like it’s sand
And where could I go to let these stubborn people know
That Your Love is greater than Your Law’s demand.
Conviction sets in after a campfire,
As a counselor shares his faith
A testimony of God’s goodness in his life,
And she wonders, “Could I ever be the same?”
And a spark of new faith begins to flicker
As she turns away from a life of sin
And she decides she’ gonna watch and wait and see.
What would life be like if I gave it all to Him
(Chorus)
“What could I be if You had Your way with me
Could I run across the water like it’s sand
And where could I go to let these stubborn people know
That Your Love is greater than Your Law’s demand.
(Bridge)
And here I stand now on the shore,
crying out across the sea
‘Cause my feet keep getting wet.
And then the truth starts sinking in,
You’ve got a plan for me
And I’ll walk on water yet.
Yeah I’ll walk on this old water yet.
(Chorus)
“What could I be if You had Your way with me
Could I run across the water like it’s sand
And where could I go to let these stubborn people know
That Your Love is greater than Your Law’s demand.
