Lyrics
Verse 1
Out across the water He appeared
Walking on the surface He drew near
The disciples were amazed
Then He called to Peter in the boat
To walk out on his own
So, he took a step of faith
Pre-Chorus
Jesus will lead us
Through unfamiliar doors
But that's where we'll witness
The power of the Lord
Chorus
Where there is faith in motion
It's an extraordinary place
That's where the heavens open
With just a simple act of faith
Moving beyond what we see
Living out what we believe
That's where we want to be
Where there is faith in motion
Verse 2
Only when we venture out in faith
Standing on the promises He made
Will the miracles begin
And even when the winds begin to blow
We'll be steady as we go
If we keep our eyes on Him
Pre-Chorus
Finding the Spirit
Is moving us ahead
Breaking through lifeless
To living on the edge
Chorus
Where there is faith in motion
It's an extraordinary place
That's where the heavens open
With just a simple act of faith
Moving beyond what we see
Living out what we believe
That's where we want to be
Where there is faith in motion
Chorus
Where there is faith in motion
It's an extraordinary place
That's where the heavens open
With just a simple act of faith
Moving beyond what we see
Living out what we believe
That's where we want to be
Chorus
Where there is faith in motion
It's an extraordinary place
That's where the heavens open
With just a simple act of faith
Chorus
Faith in motion
It's an extraordinary place
That's where the heavens open
With just a simple act of faith
Chorus
Where there is faith in motion
It's an extraordinary place
That's where the heavens open
With just a simple act of faith
Outro

Meaning & Inspiration
Faith In Motion retells Peter walking on the water and applies it to stepping out in faith. The first verse describes Jesus appearing on the water, the amazed disciples and Peter taking a step of faith when called. The pre-chorus says that Jesus will lead through unfamiliar doors where the power of the Lord is seen, and the chorus calls faith in motion an extraordinary place where the heavens open.
The second verse says miracles begin when believers venture out standing on His promises, remaining steady with eyes on Him even as the winds blow. The story is from Matthew 14:25-33, with Hebrews 11:1 and 2 Corinthians 5:7 on faith, and Hebrews 12:2 on keeping the eyes on Jesus. The repeated chorus and upbeat movement make it an encouraging song of trust, and its simple wording is easy for a group to take up.
