You said you'd come
And share all my sorrows
You said you'd be there
For all my tomorrows
I came so close to sending you away
But just like you promised
You came there to stay
I just had to pray
And Jesus said
"Come to the water
Stand by my side
I know you are thirsty
You won't be denied
I felt every teardrop
When in darkness you cried
And I strove to remind you
That for those tears I died"
Your goodness so great
I can't understand
And dear Lord
I know that all this was planned
I know you're here now
And always will be
Your love loosed my chains
And in you I'm free
But Jesus
Why me?
And Jesus said
"Come to the water
Stand by my side
I know you are thirsty
You won't be denied
I felt every teardrop
When in darkness you cried
And I strove to remind you
That for those tears I died"
Jesus
I give you my heart and my soul
I know that without God
I'd never be whole
Savior
You opened all the right doors
And I thank you and praise you
From earth's humble shores
Take me
I'm yours
And Jesus said
"Come to the water
Stand by my side
I know you are thirsty
You won't be denied
I felt every teardrop
When in darkness you cried
And I strove to remind you
That for those tears I died"
