Petra's 'Beyond Belief' is a rock-influenced Christian song encouraging believers to step out in faith and trust God's leading, even when the path is uncertain. The lyrics use imagery of a pilgrimage and a leap of faith, emphasizing that growth comes from moving beyond comfort zones. The chorus speaks of reaching a higher place and growing from faith to faith, while verses acknowledge the difficulty of change but affirm that God, who began the work, will complete it. The song inspires perseverance and reliance on God's strength.
Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
We're content to pitch our tent
When the glory's evident
Seldom do we know
The glory came and went
Moving can seem dangerous
In this stranger's pilgrimage
Knowing that you can't stand still
You cross the bridge
[Chorus]
There's a higher place to go
Beyond belief, beyond belief
Where we reach the next plateau
Beyond belief, beyond belief
And from faith to faith we grow
Towards the center of the flow
Where He beckons us to go
Beyond belief, beyond belief
Leap of faith without a net
Makes us want to hedge our bet
Waters never part
Until our feet get wet, whoa, whoa
There's a deeper place to go
Where the road seems hard to hoe
He who has begun this work
Won't let it go (let it go!)
[Chorus]
And it takes so long to see the change
But we look around, and it seems so strange
We have come so far, but the journey's long
And we once were weak, but now we are strong
[Chorus]
