Your Footsteps Through the Water

[Intro - Fingerpicked guitar; low harmonica] [Verse 1 - Bubba, male solo] All night long my hands are reaching, But my soul will not be soothed; You have kept my eyelids open, I am troubled, without words. I recall my songs at midnight, Search the years that went before; Has Your kindness left forever? Will Your promise speak no more? [Chorus - Duet, searching] Your footsteps through the water Left no print for eyes to see; Still You led Your people onward, Still You made a path through sea. When my heart can find no answer, Let me ponder what You've done; Your footsteps through the water Tell of strength beyond my own. [Verse 2 - Darlene, female solo] Has compassion been forgotten? Has Your anger closed the door? I will turn to ancient wonders, To Your mighty deeds of old. Waters saw You and they trembled, Thunder shook the darkened sky; Clouds poured rain and lightning answered, Earth itself could not stand quiet. [Instrumental Break - Dobro; harmonica; brief original wordless yodel] [Bridge - Darlene, female solo] There is none so great in power, None who works Your wonders, Lord; You redeemed the sons of Jacob, Joseph's children, by Your arm. Through the hands of Moses, Aaron, Like a flock You led them through; Though I cannot trace Your footprints, I remember what is true. [Final Chorus - Duet] Your footsteps through the water Left no print for eyes to see; Still You led Your people onward, Still You made a path through sea. When my heart can find no answer, Let me ponder what You've done; Your footsteps through the water Tell of strength beyond my own. [Outro - Guitar and harmonica] I remember what You've done.
