Washed By The Water by Needtobreathe

I love hearing this song on the radio, though I admit that its
because of the music, not the lyrics. So many contemporary Christian
songs today have lyrics that are theologically weak or shallow or wishy-washy, and in a few cases, even bordering on blasphemy (or, at the least, false doctrine).
I wish that more 'Christian vocal artists' or those who write Christian songs would take the Psalms and put them to music, or take Bible verses, straight out of Scripture, and put it to modern music (and I know there are a few who are doing this). The great Hymns of old had very deep theological content, unlike most of today's contemporary Christian music. I also wish that more Christian song writers would take the old hymns and put modern music to them.


WASHED BY THE WATER
NeedToBreathe

Daddy was a preacher
She was his wife
Just tryin to make the world a little better
You know, shine a light
People started talking
Just to hear their own voice
Those people tried to accuse my father
Said he made the wrong choice
Though it might be painful
You know that time will always tell
Those people have long since gone
My father never failed

Chorus:
Even when the rain falls
Even when the flood starts rising
Even when the storm comes
I am washed by the water

(Repeat Chorus)

Even if the Earth crumbles under my feet
Even when the ones I love turn around and crucify me
I won’t never ever let you down
I won’t fall
I won’t fall
I won’t fall as long as you’re around me

(Back to Chorus)
