Sunday in the Water

Tuesday night, I parked across the road Sat there while the engine ticked I'd said yes three weeks in a row This time I finally walked in Someone moved a stack of coats And made a little room for me I asked the question I thought I shouldn't Nobody hurried me to believe

Week by week, a little less pretending I found the words to pray again

Sunday in the water Monday in the world Jesus, I will follow There's so much I have to learn I'm not here with all the answers I'm here because You called Sunday in the water And You meet me in it all

My brother brought his little daughter She waved before I said a word Mum was somewhere near the back row Crying like she hadn't heard I told them how I'd kept my distance How I thought I'd left too much to mend How grace had found me on a Tuesday In a room of people who became my friends

Sunday in the water Monday in the world Jesus, I will follow There's so much I have to learn I'm not here with all the answers I'm here because You called Sunday in the water And You meet me in it all

They called my name, I took a breath The water closed above my head I came up smiling, heard them sing A towel was waiting in my friend's two hands Tomorrow I'll still take the same train Still have hard things I need to say But I won't walk those roads alone Your love goes with me on the way

Sunday in the water Monday in the world Jesus, I will follow There's so much I have to learn I'm not here with all the answers I'm here because You called Sunday in the water And You meet me in it all

Lead me when the singing's over Lead me when the morning comes Sunday in the water And a life of walking on
