Short Description of SongAsking the Lord to be baptised by his healing waters daily
Long Description of SongPowerful lyric about someonee who is realizing they are not living their life as God intended. Their rebirth is asking for God to baptise them (not literally) with His healing waters daily to wash away all the complacency and sin.
HEALING WATERS
Music & Lyrics by Bree Noble

VERSE I:
Why cant I get out of bed this morning?
These flimsy sheets seem to weigh a ton.
I try to move but Im paralyzed by something,
Something buried deep
In my own deceit
About the person Ive become.
VERSE II:
I cry out lout for the strength to face my demons.
Oh Lord my God you know whats ailing me.
I try to hide but inside my soul is screaming.
Lord deliver me
Baptize me.
Set me free!"
CHORUS:
Wash away all the layers of dust that have settled over me.
Wash away all the secret thoughts I dont want You to see.
Wash away the complacency until Im overcome
By the healing waters of your grace.
VERSE III:
Your wave of truth, let it knock me over backwards
Till Im immersed and careening toward the falls.
Lord rescue me! I'm ready to surrender.
Hold me in Your arms
My loving savior
Now and forever. And
CHORUS
BRIDGE
For so many years Ive coveted the path of least resistance.
Couldnt see the plans You have for me till my heart was opened wide..
Ive walked the walk and talked the talk, but Ive never gone the distance
But now Im finally ready to begin a brand new life.
CHORUS
