"HOLY WATER" LYRICS
----------
Words and Music by Ed Cash, Scott Cash, Franni Cash, Martin Cash, Andrew Bergthold
VERSE 1
God, I'm on my knees again
God, I'm begging please again
I need You
Oh, I need You
Walking down these desert roads
Water for my thirsty soul
I need You
Oh, I need You
CHORUS
Your forgiveness
Is like sweet, sweet honey on my lips
Like the sound of a symphony to my ears
It's like holy water on my skin
VERSE 2
Dead man walking, slave to sin
I wanna know about being born again
I need You
Oh, God, I need You
So, take me to the riverside
Take me under, baptize
I need You
Oh, God, I need You
BRIDGE
I don't wanna abuse Your grace
God, I need it every day
It's the only thing that ever really
Makes me wanna change
