Have You Been To the Waters Part 2
Burden by the devil
Such an evil presents
No one likes him, don't allow him to steal your blessings
Grandma said we should always pray
Instead of letting the devil have his way
And when he comes he to calling
You'd better denial him don't just stall him
And when you pray
Acknowledge those sins that led you astray
Instead of letting the devil have his way
Grandma said we should always pray
Feelin kind of dirty
My livin not so worthy
And I'm hardly feelin holy
Lord God please accept me
A low life human have mercy
And when I prayed
I've those sins that led me astray
I am forgiven, chosen and reliving
Saved by His mercies and grace
Spread out all over my life and face
Have you been to the waters
Are you one of God's sons and daughters
And don't you think you otta
Think bout talkin to the Father
He has all the answers to all your problems
Have you been to the waters
Dirty filthy sinner
You have been redeemed
So forget bout them sins, God has
Been to the waters and He's already washed you clean
Yes, we're all forgiven, chosen and reliving
Saved by His mercies and grace
Spread out all over our life and face
Have you been to the waters
Are you one of God's sons and daughters
And don't you think you otta
Think bout talkin to the Father
He has all the answers to all your problems
Grandma still prayin, as she's saying...
Have you been to the waters ?
