Oceani (Dove I Piedi Falliscono) (feat. Lidia Schillaci)

The song "Oceani (Dove I Piedi Falliscono)" by Hillsong In Italiano, featuring Lidia Schillaci, is a powerful anthem of faith and trust in the divine. The lyrics draw heavily on the biblical story of Peter walking on water towards Jesus, a metaphor for stepping out in faith despite uncertainty and fear. The opening lines, "Tu mi chiami a camminare / Su quelle acque sconosciute," set the stage for a journey into the unknown, where the singer finds solace and strength in their faith.

The recurring theme of calling upon the divine name and looking beyond the waves symbolizes the act of seeking spiritual guidance and support during life's storms. The lines, "Ed il Tuo nome chiamerò / Oltre le onde guarderò / Nella tempesta / L’anima mia riposa in Te," emphasize the idea of finding peace and rest in a higher power, even amidst chaos and turmoil. This reflects a deep sense of belonging and assurance, encapsulated in the phrase, "Io sono Tuo e Tu sei mio," which translates to "I am Yours and You are mine."

The song also highlights the concept of grace and divine guidance, as seen in the verse, "La Tua grazia è in questo mare / Con la Tua mano / Mi guiderai." This suggests that grace is ever-present, guiding and supporting the believer through life's challenges. The plea for the Spirit to lead beyond one's limits, "Spirito guidami oltre i miei confini," signifies a desire for spiritual growth and deeper faith. The song concludes with a reaffirmation of trust and belonging, reinforcing the message that faith can carry one through even the most daunting of life's oceans.
