I went to bed with the sunrise
Woke up to a dark sky
I pray 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
Wont you take my hand

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

Better than a 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

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

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

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
