Only Water - Brandon Heath

There’s a shadow coming

As the sky goes black

It’s a stubborn rain

On a Nebraska plain

There’s a farmer standing

On a thirsty ground

He holds his breath

This is life or death

It’s only water

And it washes over me Like a single river stone

Changes everything

But has no power on its own

It’s only water

There’s a winding canyon

Where a mountain stood

Miles of earth and clay

Carried far away

But there’s something holy

In these cathedral walls

They took a lot of years

And a lot of tears

It’s only water

And it washes over me Like a single river stone

Changes everything

But has no power on its own

It’s only water

There once was a wedding

All the wine was gone

They said He’s just a man

That’s where it all began

It was only water

And it washes over me Like a single river stone

Changes everything

But has no power on its own

It washes over me Like a single river stone

Changes everything

But has no power on its own, on its own

It’s only water
