Sarah Hawkyard released a truly impressive, stirring cover of ‘Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)’. She expresses herself with her voice and piano; the effect is wonderful. Watch the video to see the stirring performance. 

The young artist puts her own spin on the moving worship song as she elegantly moves her voice to accompany her piano playing. 

“This is my version of Oceans by Hillsong Worship, one of the most powerful worship anthems of our generation. I pray it reminds you to step out of the boat and trust Jesus, even when the path isn’t clear,” Sarah said, referring to when Jesus called his disciple, Peter, to walk on water as a test of faith in the book of Matthew. 

Some of the lyrics of the powerful praise song are: 

Your grace abounds in deepest waters
Your sovereign hand will be my guide
Where feet may fail and fear surrounds me
You've never failed and You won't start now

As Sarah plays, the atmosphere seems so quiet and peaceful. The performance feels wholly heartfelt, and even from her side profile, you can see and hear Sarah’s emotions in her face and voice as she sings. It’s covers like this that ensure these songs never get old. 

The song draws you to reflect on its message and embrace it. Her cover maintains the deep sounds and message of the original song, which is about a dedicated willingness to follow God wherever he calls. It’s a powerful reminder of God’s peace and presence. Though a storm may be brewing around you, God’s got you, and you can trust him to lead you. 

“And he said to them all, If any man has a desire to come after me, let him give up all, and take up his cross every day, and come after me.” Luke 9:23
