From the recording So Human
This track tested the lower part of my range but I don't think it would've sounded right in a higher register. Hopefully it portrays the parched, thirsty feeling I was trying to convey.
Lyrics
Come With Water
Music by Brian DeKam, lyrics by Tim Glenn
Lord I'm broken
I'm choking on my sin
this filth that's coating me is penetrating skin
It so consumes me
I cannot taste my breath
Lord I'm dying, and I'm scared to death
Come with water!
Come and quench my soul
Lord, I thirst for me.
Your holy water
cleanses as it flows
pour on me and make me whole
My soul is empty
I have no strength to spend
I'm tired from lifting and falling down again
I'm parched and begging
for just a single drop
Lord I'm trying, I'm crying out, "oh God!"
Come with water!
Come and quench my soul
Lord, I thirst for me.
Your holy water
cleanses as it flows
pour on me and make me whole
Come with water!
Come and quench my soul
Lord, I thirst for me.
Your holy water
cleanses as it flows
pour on me and make me whole
