Carrie Underwood - Something in the Water

Something in the Water

He said, "I've been where you've been before.
Down every hallway's a slamming door."
No way out, no one to come and save me
Wasting a life that the Good Lord gave me

Then somebody said what I'm saying to you
Opened my eyes and told me the truth."
They said, "Just a little faith, it'll all get better."
So I followed that preacher man down to the river and now I'm changed
And now I'm stronger

There must've been something in the water
Oh, there must've been something in the water

Well, I heard what he said and I went on my way
Didn't think about it for a couple of days
Then it hit me like a lightning late one night
I was all out of hope and all out of fight

Couldn't fight back the tears so I fell on my knees
Saying, "God, if you're there come and rescue me."
Felt love pouring down from above
Got washed in the water, washed in the blood and now I'm changed

And now I'm stronger

There must be something in the water
Oh, there must be something in the water

And now I'm singing along to amazing grace
Can't nobody wipe this smile off my face
Got joy in my heart, angels on my side
Thank God almighty, I saw the light
Gonna look ahead, no turning back
Live every day, give it all that I have
Trust in someone bigger than me
Ever since the day that I believed I am changed
And now I'm stronger

There must be something in the water
Oh, there must be something in the water
Oh, there must be something in the water
Oh, there must be something in the water
Oh, yeah

I am changed
Stronger

I'm free

When I first heard this song, I was excited that such a famous singer was writing a song so much about God and Him rescuing her. I then heard from a girl in my class that she actually got baptized before this, which got me even more excited that this happened in her life. I am not too sure about Carrie's background with Christianity, but I am excited that she released this song. I got excited that so many people who follow her will hear this song and that they can hear the Truth from her in a song. I also like that she isn't connected to the Christian Music Industry (from my understanding), and that she is a light into the Country Music world.
I would hope that this would allow me to talk more about what Jesus did for us and the life we have now because of what Jesus did for us. I would tell them how the Jesus I serve does care for us and loves us, and would try and explain how bad things still happen because of the sin in the world.
