Washed By The Water

was a preacher She was his wife Just tryin' to make the world a little better, you know Shine a light People started talking Trying 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 Even when the rain falls Even when the flood starts rising Even when the storm comes I am washed by the water Even if the Earth crumbles under my feet Even if 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
