lyrics

Gonna go down to the water, gonna lay me down in Jesus. / O Lord, I’m limping along. Can’t you see I’m just limping along? O Lord, I’m limping along, but I’m coming. / Gonna go down to the water, gonna lay my sin down in Jesus. / O Lord, you done broke my bones…still I’m coming. / I want to melt with you and love the way you do, to always feel your touch. But nothing I do, ever feels like enough. / Gonna go down to the water, gonna lay my crown down in Jesus. / O Lord, you done loved me so good…that I’m coming. / Gonna go down to the water, gonna get raised up a new creation. / I got my ticket and his train is here. No more terror and no more tears, no more sin or death or hell or fear. And there’s a seat for every sinner like me—so hell yes I’m coming!
