Lyrics

Stay in the Boat
©, Susan H. Wood, 2006

Oh Jesus sent the disciples
Out on the Sea of Galilee
Then up he went onto the mountain
His father for to speak

The hours passed the night grew dark
The wind did whip and blow
While in the boat the men despaired
And then they saw a ghost

Chorus:
Just stay in the boat, just stay in the boat
Everybody just stay in the boat
Just stay in the boat, just stay in the boat
Everybody just stay in the boat
Just stay in the boat, just stay in the boat
Everybody just stay in the boat

Then Jesus said take heart
It is I do not fear
But Peter said if it?s really you
Lord let me walk out of here

The Lord said come and Peter walked
But with fear and doubt he sank
The Lord lifted him up and drew him in
And said oh yea of little faith

Chorus:
Just stay in the boat, just stay in the boat
Everybody just stay in the boat
Just stay in the boat, just stay in the boat
Everybody just stay in the boat
Just stay in the boat, just stay in the boat
Everybody just stay in the boat
Just stay in the boat, just stay in the boat
Everybody just stay in the boat

Sometimes are faith is tested
We?re gripped with doubt and fear
We blame all those around us
We feel we must get out of here
But when we leave we cheat ourselves
And all of those around
Outta seeing how God will work it out
And how his love abounds

Chorus:
So, stay in the boat, just stay in the boat
Everybody just stay in the boat
Just stay in the boat, just stay in the boat
Everybody just stay in the boat
Just stay in the boat, just stay in the boat
Everybody just stay in the boat
Just stay in the boat, just stay in the boat
Everybody just stay in the boat
