"Faint, Yet Pursuing"

Author: Lydia Banks Hymnal: Carols of Hope #212b (1906) First Line: We are walking on the waters Lyrics: 1. We are walking on the waters Of a dark and troubled sea, And our hearts, O Lord, are fainting That we cannot come to thee. 2. Fainting at the storms that gather, Tho' above thy voice be heard Fainting in thy very presence, Tho' we venture at thy word. 3. Yet we know, since thou hast bidden Us to walk, thou wilt sustain, Thro' a way as rough and pathless As the storm-toss'd watery main. 4. And if dangers so encompass That thy form we scarcely see, We may still press surely onward, For thou bidst us come to thee. Languages: English Tune Title: [We are walking on the waters]
