Down in the Water

Verse 1: I was lost, I was broken, heavy was my soul Walking in the darkness, nowhere left to go But I heard a voice like thunder, calling out my name “Come down to the river, child, and rise up changed” Chorus: I went down in the water, washed by grace Left my burdens in that holy place Chains fell off, I was born again Jesus met me in the river, took away my sin Now I’m walking in the light, baptized in fire Down in the water, I found new life! Verse 2: Tears were fallin’, heart was clean The blood of the Lamb covered everything No more shame, no more fear I found my Savior standing near Chorus: I went down in the water, washed by grace Left my burdens in that holy place Chains fell off, I was born again Jesus met me in the river, took away my sin Now I’m walking in the light, baptized in fire Down in the water, I found new life! Bridge: Oh, there’s power in the name Freedom in the flood Mercy in the water And redemption in the blood I’m not who I used to be— Jesus, You set me free! Final Chorus (modulate key for lift): I went down in the water, washed by grace Left my burdens in that holy place Chains fell off, I was born again Jesus met me in the river, took away my sin Now I’m dancing in the light, lifted higher Down in the water, I found new life! Outro: Yes, down in the water… I found new life!
