Three Feet Of Water

Got a whole lotta years and a whole lotta Pain. And it done got me here Where the river meets the clay. Winding through my past, trying to find some good. But I can't seem to see What Mama always could. And that sun is shining down On all my darker days. They're coming to me now As I hear the preacher Say, "In the name of the Son and the Father," Can I really leave it all In three feet of water? I can't unbreak the laws, straighten out the roads I bent. Take the broken dreams and hearts, Make 'em all whole again. I've been carrying around all the messes that I Made. But a few more steps from now, They'll all be washed away. And that sun is shining down On all my darker days. They're coming to me now As I hear the preacher say, "In the name of the Son and the Father." Who'd have thought I could leave it all? Three feet of water washing over me. Amazing grace, the choir sings and now I know What mercy's all about. And that sun is shining down On all my darker Days. They're nowhere to be found. All that preacher had to say Was, "In the name of the Son and the Father." Who'd have thought I could leave it all? You took my cross so I could leave it All In three feet of water. In three feet of water. So was that simple, Huh?
