The winter of our discontent is crowding out the spring
Where circumstance abounds and hope is stumbling
Here the faithful few are crying for relief
From burdens we should give to you to carry
Will you carry?

The water that once quenched our thirst
Is causing us to drown
And the bread of life you gave to us
Is the food we can't keep down

Push away from this sailing ship
Take a step out on the water
We may sink faster than we had ever planned
But this is how we learn to live again

So many years since we last took a step of faith
Thought we were standing still - but really losing ground
This baggage from the past is more than we can bear
So we give up what was lost - not it'll never be found
Will it ever be found?

When the body that you broke for us
Becomes a fable that we tell
And the blood that flowed is reduced to just
Sin's pardon up for sale

Push away from this sailing ship
Take a step out on the water
We may sink faster than we had ever planned
But this is how we learn to live again

Cause a life of mediocrity
Is never what you'd choose
Stranger tides are calling me
I've got nothing else to lose

Push away from this sailing ship
Take a step out on the water
We may sink faster than we had ever planned
But this is how we learn to live again
