Peterson, Andrew - If I Wanna Walk Lyrics






Listen to me, Jesus
'Cause I know you'll understand
I've been right back down
With the weight of the world on my mind

I'm trying hard to salvage joy
In spite of circumstance
But I can't quite seem to let faith
Have the wheel this time

But if I wanna walk on water
Then I've gotta get outta the boat
And if I'm gonna move this mountain
I've gotta start with a little more hope
If I'm gonna take a leap of faith
Then I'd better not expect to fall
'Cause I know I've gotta stand
If I wanna walk

Listen to the birds sing
Do they ever sound alone?
Do they spread their wings
And yet question their strength to fly?
I'm trying hard to trust You
Lord, but it's safer said than done
So won't You feather my faith
With a love for the open sky?

Peterson, Andrew If I Wanna Walk Comments
  1. C.... G....

    "Who caused the Babalonian captivity, because he was a liar. Which isn't really true but it rhymes..."

  2. I.... I....

    Well I can't understand none of it. This one begat that one and that one begat this one, and lo and behold someone says some sh*t to someone else.

  3. R.... D....

    This is AWESOME I REPEAT AWESOME

  4. R.... D....

    WOWWWWWWWWW

  5. M.... D....

    I was about 6 or 7 when I heard this. I’ve memorized this from heart. I was obsessed with this song. My love of Andrew Peterson’s music has only grown, but this will always be my favorite. And ten years later, I still proudly sing this to my friends at church.

  6. S.... D....

    we sing this at camp. good song!

  7. J.... D....

    All Scripture is profitable. Amen!

  8. D.... S....

    Very good!!

  9. S.... M....

    WOW>>>>what a memory!

  10. M.... J....

    The song is a great reminder of Who's Who in the Bible. The genealogy reminds us that the people were not all Jews. Christ came to save all mankind

  11. D.... B....

    Awesome,

    Do you have a cool tune (or the same one) for the generations from Adam to Terah?

  12. M.... M....

    FYI ZakiaTF, "Josiah" does rhyme with " lia' "

  13. j.... ....

    There' Andy O!

  14. T.... B....

    I got to give up to him. This is a pretty catchy song for being a genealogy.

  15. Z.... ....

    When he said "because he was a liar"... right afterwards he said "which isn't really true but it rhymed"... lol get it?
    Went to his recent Behold the Lamb of God concert... really really just in awe of his music

  16. d.... r....

    I love this song, and I always wondered about the Jehoiachim line. I love studying OT history, and the kings of Israel and the divided kingdom, and wondered how he got that about "because he was a liar"...now I know (1:25). BTLOG is on my top 10 list of albums, and if you consider it a Christmas album, it's my favorite Christmas album hands down! To me the whole album is more of the redemption story than Christmas, and that's why I love it! Thanks Andrew for such inspired music!
