"This Water" lyrics

Ah yeah
Ah yah, eh
Yah

I was walking by the shoreline
Contemplating letting go...
When I stepped into the water
Wondering what's down below...

So I begin closing my eyes
Then I saw you there afloat
I was wondering, "How'd you get there?"
For I could not see your boat

So I gazed a little closer
"Could it be you're here alone?"
Drifting further into the depths
For the fear, I turned for shore

But the waves just pulled me deeper!
Crying from my heart
"Oh LORD, please just pull me from this water
LORD just pull me out!"

I can see my life flashing before my eyes
LORD I can't believe it's a life full of lies
So many times I would try and advise
LORD all this time I've been blind in disguise

Gave into sin in the name of "I tried"
Smoke and I drank to avoid all Your signs
I claimed that I loved You (Chose my own side)
I claimed I was for them! (Abandoned my tribes)

I pray that You hear me while I'm still alive!
LORD please forgive me for wasting Your time!
Why didn't I believe and give You the best of me!?
LORD don't take Your breath from me... no

Just don't take Your breath from me!
LORD don't take Your breath from me (...oh)
I'll give You the best of me (Oh!)
LORD don't take Your breath from me

...Have I gone too far this time?
No excuse for my crimes...
(Ah, Yah, Yah, Yah, Yah, Yah)
