Sometimes at night When I am afraid I cover my eyes And I cover my shame So here in the dark Broken apart Come with your light And fill up my heart Oh great light of the world Fill up my soul I'm half a man here So come make me whole Oh great light of the world Come to impart The light of your grace to fill up my heart The wind of this world Can push us around Folding us up Backing us down Here in the dark I'm not alone So come with your strength And carry me home
Let the songs of praise to God rise among us. Be blessed.

[computer voice] (During the fourth watch of the night, Jesus went out to them, walking on the lake. When the disciples saw him walking on the lake, they were terrified. "It is a ghost," they said, and cried out in fear. But Jesus said to them, "Take courage. It is I, don't be afraid," don't be afraid, don't be afraid...) Open up my eyes, I pray Lord, for just a little glimpse of you That's all I need, it's all I've ever needed To see beyond myself, beyond this tiny, little world All your hands have made With beauty and strength alone I can see you comin' to me now Oh, like a shimmerin' light Shimmerin' light on an open sea Barefoot on the water Laughin' at the ocean Like you were old friends Callin' out my name Saying join me now Strollin' on the water High over every care Strollin' on the water Sinking no longer Let me rise above the high tide I can do it, I'll do it, yeah I know where my strength comes from Do do do do do do, do do do do do do, do do do do do do Help me cut these bonds where I keep my spirit tied All safe and dry Safe and dry, but so afraid Let me come to you Let me run to you With my heart still beating Beating in my throat With my sweaty palms and mouth so dry Shakin' 'til I can't stand still All I'm askin' All I'm askin' is to let me cross That great divide between you and I Only you can take me there So take me there, yeah! Strollin' on the water High over every care Strollin' on the water Sinking no longer Let me rise above the high tide I can do it, I'll do it, yeah I know that you said, "follow me" Just let the water flow Let it go Oh keep your eyes on me Do you feel alive? Try turnin' circles, yeah Bend your knees And hold your hands up high Can you feel the wind in your hair? With your eyes closed Take a breath of fresh air Feel the mist on your toes Look where we are! Strollin' on the water High over every care Strollin' on the water Sinking no longer Strollin' on the water High over every care Strollin' on the water Sinking no longer Let me rise above the high tide I can do it, I'll do it, yeah I know where my strength comes from Strollin' on the water High over every care (I know where my strength comes from) Strollin' on the water Sinking no longer Strollin' on the water High over every care (I know where my strength comes from) Strollin' on the water Sinking no longer Strollin' on the water High over every care Strollin' on the water Sinking no longer
Well, her mama named her Brooklyn Lord only knows why. She never been East of the Mississippi. Raised here all her life. Just a small town Texas girl. Dreamin' of the lights of New York City. But if she can't never get there, maybe someday her baby will. Well, he never been to Texas but he knew down in his soul he was born to be a cowboy, ridin' in a rodeo. So he named his boy Austin. Plants a cactus in his brownstone windowsill. But if he never gets West of Jersey, maybe someday Austin will. Chorus: Funny how much you can pour your life, your soul, your dreams into who you love. Well, it takes all ya got and gives back more than you can take. Starts with a spark, burns through your heart, turns into a roaring flame. And if you're willin' to fuel the fire, forever you will never be the same. Laid over in St Louis, grounded by the snow. Had a Starbucks in the airport. He said, "Where you tryin' to go?" She said, "Austin." He said, "What? Funny that's my name!" And she said, "Hi. My name is Brooklyn". And he knew things would never be the same. Chorus: Funny how much you can pour your life, your soul, your dreams into who you love. Well, it takes all ya got and gives back more than you can take. Starts with a spark, burns through your heart, turns into a roaring flame. And if you're willin' to fuel the fire, forever you will never be the same. Now you don't have to have a crazy name to see your dreams fulfilled. Just ask Brooklyn and Austin ..... they named her 'Jill' Chorus: Funny how much you can pour your life, your soul, your dreams into who you love. Well, it takes all ya got and gives back more than you can take. Starts with a spark, burns through your heart, turns into a roaring flame. And if you're willin' to fuel the fire, forever you will never be the same.
