Anthem Lights - Something in the Water Lyrics

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 me

Then somebody said what I'm saying to you
Opened my eyes and told me the truth
They said, "Just a little faith
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 hope and 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"
Felt love pouring down from above
Got washed in the water
Washed in the blood and now

I'm changed and now I'm stronger

There must be something in the water
Oh, there must be something in the water

And now I'm singing along to amazing grace
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
Gonna look ahead, no turning back
Live every day, give it all that I have
Trust in 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 but now I'm found
Was blind but now I see
