I've been lookin' at the past
I've wasted too much time on things that won't last
I've built a kingdom out of rubble and sand
But I don't, I don't want to hold on to it all
I'm ready for the river to run and wash it away
I'm singin', come sweet water, cleanse my soul
Shower me and make me whole
Consume me with the healing flood
Leave no traces of the man that I was
Before the river came
There's no freedom in the chains
They hold you captive to the guilt of your stains
One drop of water brings an ocean of change
And I long, I long to move on from it all
I'm ready for the river to run and wash it away
I'm singin', come sweet water, cleanse my soul
Shower me and make me whole
Consume me with the healing flood
Leave no traces of the man that I was
Before the river came
Baptize and bury me
Until only you remain, come and rescue me
I don't want to be the man that I was
Long before the river came
I'm singin', come sweet water, cleanse my soul
Shower me and make me whole
Consume me with the healing flood
Leave no traces of the man that I was
Before the river came
(Come sweet water, cleanse my soul)
Shower me and make me whole
Consume me with the healing flood
Leave no traces of the man that I was
Come sweet water, cleanse my soul
Shower me and make me whole
Consume me with the healing flood
Leave no traces of the man that I was
Come sweet water, cleanse my soul
Shower me and make me whole
Consume me with the healing flood
Leave no traces of the man that I was
Come sweet water, cleanse my soul
