Holy Water - We the Kingdom - S05.E18

<p>"Holy Water" peaked at #2 on the Billboard Christian charts. Its eponymous album rose to #4 on Billboard's top Christian albums charts. In addition to winning the GMA Dove award for Pop/Contemporary album of the year, this album also received a Grammy for top Christian album of the year. This week we're taking a deep dive into the lyrics and talking about the concept of holy water in the Bible and in various Christian traditions. We also discuss the idea of "improving upon" one's "baptism" and how the lyrics of this song may be influenced by the psalms.&nbsp;</p> <p>Lyric video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l0xhhG1Hyos</p> <p>Dr. Todd Grande's video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OMkrosLHIEs</p> <p><br></p> <p>Lyrics:</p> <p>God, I'm on my knees again</p> <p>God, I'm begging please again</p> <p>I need You</p> <p>Oh, I need You</p> <p>Walking down these desert roads</p> <p>Water for my thirsty soul</p> <p>I need You</p> <p>Oh, I need You</p> <p><br></p> <p>Your forgiveness</p> <p>Is like sweet, sweet honey on my lips</p> <p>Like the sound of a symphony to my ears</p> <p>Like holy water on my skin, hey!</p> <p><br></p> <p>Dead man walking, slave to sin</p> <p>I wanna know about being born again</p> <p>I need You</p> <p>Oh, God, I need You</p> <p>So, take me to the riverside</p> <p>Take me under, baptize</p> <p>I need You</p> <p>Oh, God, I need You, oh-oh</p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p> <p>I don't wanna abuse Your grace</p> <p>God, I need it every day</p> <p>It's the only thing that ever really</p> <p>Makes me wanna change</p> --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/worship-review/message Support this podcast: <a href="https://anchor.fm/worship-review/support" rel="payment">https://anchor.fm/worship-review/support</a>
