I went to bed with the sunrise
Woke up to a dark sky
I prayed to God
Promise this would be the last time
In my dreams, oh
There was a headstone
I saw a name at the top that was my own
Underneath it said, guilty, sinner
Here lies a man who was meant for better
I wanna change, wanna live forever
Won’t you take my hand

CHORUS:
Lead me into the water
Wash me under the waves
Lead me into the water
Cover me in your grace
Who I am, what I was
Take me down, raise me up
Out of the water
Changed
I found life in the death of me
I found life in the death of me

VERSE 2:
Better than dream now
You'd never believe how
I was in a burning building ‘til You sent the rain down
I got a clean start
Beating from a new heart
I left the old me buried in the graveyard
And now I’m seeing light
Now I’m feeling life
Burning on the inside
I’m never going back
Everything I had
I leave it on the shoreline

(CHORUS)

BRIDGE:
Oh death, where did your sting go
The threats You make are hollow
And now you’re just a shadow
Oh death, where did your sting go
The threats you make are hollow
'Cause now you’re just a shadow

(CHORUS)

OUTRO:
I found life in the death of me
Gonna find Your life in the death of me
Gonna find Your life in the death of me
