Oceans

So I know the song Oceans by hillsong united is not new, but I was reminded of how much it moves me on Sunday night when my sister and a friend of hers sang it during a worship night. It's one of those songs that, for me as a dancer, makes it hard to just listen. It inspires me to dance with all my heart (which I did in my kitchen today by the way). It also brings me to tears because of how powerful the words are, especially this section "Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders, let me walk upon the waters, wherever you would call me. Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander, and my faith will be made stronger, in the presence of my Savior." To sing those words and be sincere is not an easy task. I heard of an article my sister read that actually said "stop singing oceans" for this exact reason. But what I would like to communicate today is that the kind of trust the song is talking about may look different than we think.
