Take Me To The Water

(album: Clear The Heir - 2018)

Take me to the water, Lord
Walk with me along the shore
And just before you wash my sins away
I can hear you telling me you love me more
Deeper than the ocean floor
But was I worth the price you had to pay
I wanna believe

It feels like it's been a long time
Since I felt the heat from the sunshine
I keep lookin out from my window
And all I see is rain
I'm running far away from the battles
Still I can't escape my own shadow
Lord knows
I try
Feels like I'm on the highway to nowhere
Things will get much worse if I go there
But the Spirit always reminds me
Never be afraid
You called my name, I'm sure that I heard it
Here I come, please give me the courage
Draw me
Closer to you

Take me to the water, Lord
Walk with me along the shore
And just before you wash my sins away
I can hear you telling me you love me more
Deeper than the ocean floor
But was I worth the price you had to pay
I wanna believe

It's been a while since I heard you call me
I can feel these waves crashing on me
I know you told the water where to stop
Still it feels like I'm getting buried
All this weight is too much to carry
Lord knows, I'm tired
Yet you promised rest for the weary
Still I wonder if you can hear me
All these fears and shame get in the way
I want to feel your quiet in this storm
Want to find my true rest in your arms
Draw me closer to you

Take me to the water, Lord
Carry me along the shore
And just before you wash my sins away
I can hear you telling me you love me more
Now my heart is reassured
I think I know exactly what to say
Thank You
