Down every hallway's a slammin' door

No way out, no one to come and save me

Wastin' a life that the Good Lord gave you

There's somebody sayin' what I'm sayin' to you

Open my eyes and told me the truth

He said: just a little faith and it'll all get better

So I followed that preacher man down to the river

And now I'm changed

And now I'm stronger

There must*ve have been somethin' in the water

Oh there must've been somethin' in the water

Well I heard what he said and I went on my way

Didn't think about it for a couple of days

Then it hit me like a lightnin' late one night

I was all out of hopin', all out of fight

Couldn't fight back my tears so I fell on my knees

Sayin' God if you're there come and rescue me

Fell all pourin' down from above

Got washed in the water, washed in the blood

And now I'm changed

And now I'm stronger

There must be somethin' in the water

Oh there must be somethin' in the water

And now I'm singin: all along to amazin' grace

Can't nobody wipe this smile off my face

Got joy in my heart, angels on my side

Thinkin' about it, I saw the heart gonna look ahead

No turnin' back, man everyday, give it all that I have

Trusted someone bigger than me

Ever since the day that I believed I am changed

And now I'm stronger

There must be been somethin' in the water

Oh there must be somethin' in the water

Oh there must be somethin' in the water

Oh there must be somethin' in the water

Oh yeah. I am stronger. Stronger

There now I'm free
