The Shadow of Your Wings

Oh what I would do to have

the kind of faith it takes

to climb out of this boat I’m in

onto the crashing waves

To step out of my comfort zone

into the realm of the unknown where Jesus is

and He’s holding out His hand

But the waves are calling out my name

and they laugh at me

reminding me of all the times

I’ve tried before and failed

The waves they keep on telling me

time and time again, “Boy, you’ll never win!”

“You’ll never win.”

But the voice of truth tells me a different story

The voice of truth says, “Do not be afraid!”

The voice of truth says, “This is for My glory.”

Out of all the voices calling out to me

I will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth.

(from “Voice of Truth” by Casting Crowns)
