Something in the Water歌词

He said I've been where you've been before
Down every hallway's a slamming door
No way out,
no one to come and save me
Wasting a life that the Good Lord gave you
There's somebody saying what I'm saying to you
Open my eyes and told me the truth
He said: just a little faith
and it'll all get better
So I followed that preacher man down to the river
and now I'm changed
and now I'm stronger
There must've been something in the water
Oh there must've been something in the water

Well I heard what he said and I went on my way
Didn't think about it for a couple of days
Then it hit me like a lightning late one night
I was all out of hoping, all out of fight
Couldn't fight back the tears
so I fell on my knees
Saying God if you're there come and rescue me
Fell all pouring down from above
Gotta wash in the water, wash in the blur
and now I'm changed
and now I'm stronger
There must've been something in the water
Oh there must've been something in the water

And now I'm singing all along to amazing race
Can't nobody wipe this smile off my face
Got joy in my heart,
angels on my side
Thank god almighty
I saw the light
can you look ahead
No turning back, leave everyday,
give it all that I have
Trusted someone bigger than me
Ever since the day I believed
Amazing grace how sweet the sound
that saved a wretch like me
I once was lost and now I'm found
Was blind but now I see
