jane siberry - walk on water lyrics
[intro]
hey, yeah
ooh, yeah
[verse 1]
i was standing at the back of a crowd
at the edge of the sea, a multitude
a single word
a hush would fall
[verse 2]
(i prayed) i prayed that your gaze might fall on me
that my longing might part the sea of faces
and in my misery
i turned and walked away
[chorus]
come up my brother
come up my sister
come up my children
and walk on water with me
[verse 3]
i walked away from that crowd
out along a long and dusty road
i saw a woman
she was lying there in pain
crying out to me
[verse 4]
but i was so absorbed
in my own loneliness (loneliness)
are you not my brother?
i guess not yet
oh, to turn back the hands of time
i’m drowning in my shame
[chorus]
come up my brother
come up my sister
come up my children
and walk on water with me
(come up)
[verse 5]
i’d give anything (i’d give anything) to hear your voice
to touch your hand, your hem, anything
i knelt down in hopelessness
hopelessness, hopelessness
[verse 6]
i’d give everything to feel your grace (feel your grace)
to wash your feet, kiss your hem, anything
i knelt down in thankfulness
and then i felt virtue flow to me
[chorus]
(i heard) come up my brother (come up my brother)
(and i heard) come up my sister (come up my sister)
come up my children (come up my children)
and walk on water again
[verse 7]
oh, that was the night of nights
i stood against the sea
in that strange starlight
i felt the wind upon my face
i thought i heard my name, oh
[outro]
i thought i heard my name
our names, our names, our names
our names, our names, our names
