Description

Steppin’ In – from the Album “Bigger Than Me,” is inspired by the testimony of a young boy named Eli at my home church during his baptism. His faith and passion were so strong the tender moment brought me to tears. This led me to write a faith anthem of surrendering to God’s calling. Has beautiful angelic high vocals on the bridge. This epically dynamic, 2020’s era song features: french horns, driving drums, synth swirls and haunting power ballad cinematic vibe. The instrumental mix would be a great background for a climatic, powerful, scene.

Verse 1
Heard you call me - in the night alone
Jordan's calling - from the seat of your throne
Preacher's waiting
In faith I pledge - so I am going down
To the waters edge, I'm steppin' . . .

Chorus 1
In - submerse my soul healing waters cover me
I'm stepping in - I'm not ashamed - In You I believe
I surrender all - my future and my life
Fire from heaven baptize me oh Lord
I'm stepping in

Verse 2
Mighty God - Creator of my life
Make me one with the body of Christ
I'll wait for You
Guide me I pray - here I am Lord
Use me have Your way , I'm steppin' . . .

Chorus 2
In - submerse my soul healing waters cover me
I'm stepping in - I'm not afraid - In You I believe
I surrender all - my future and my life
Fire from heaven baptize me oh Lord
I'm stepping in

Bridge
Fire from heaven fall on me
Fire from heaven fall on me (Optional very high ooo)
I'm steppin' . . .

Chorus 3
In - (submerse my soul) healing waters cover me
I'm stepping in - (I'm not afraid) - In You I believe
I surrender all - my future and my life
Fire from heaven baptize me oh Lord
I'm stepping in (steppin in)

Outro
I'm stepping in (steppin in)
I'm stepping in

When my friends son decided to get baptized he shocked all of us with his testimony. He read the words from his handwriting telling of how he heard God call him in the dark while he was alone. In addition, he shared how he no longer fights with his siblings as much. But then Eli shared how he will wait on God to show him what God want's him to do with his life. In the last sentences he asked God to make him one of the body of Christ.

I know grown-ups that do not exhibit that depth of faith Eli shared in his testimony. Anybody who knows me knows I am very tenderhearted when people are baptized, especially children. Consequently, I told his parents, there is a song in all of this. This is how Eli's song was born.

As a result, this song, a pure testimony from a child, has an Anointing on it. With words like "Fire from heaven baptize me oh Lord," I believe God honors that child-like faith we all need to have. I am incredibly humbled God would use me to be part of Eli's story and to write/produce this powerful, moving song. Are you ready to "Step In."
