gave sermons on the mountain
on the galilean shoreline
to save sinners from their low lives
i didn't have much time
st. peter and the others
would also spread grace around
but there loomin' were those romans
burned up by what they'd found, now

walked on the water
raised 'em when they died
walked on the water

we dined in a family's house
with wine and some bread passed 'round
ol' judas got sore and ran on out
told 'em where i'd be found
soldiers wandered over
and grabbed me in that garden place
my time was runnin' out
they told me i was way off-base, now

walked on the water
raised 'em when they died
walked on the water

i ended up on a grassy hill
i was hung up, cold and bare
while disciples, i trusted, ran to hide
guess they really got scared
well, i hung all night
and i wound up dead
but there's no need to sweat
my father said, i'd get out of this
i knew...i knew...i'd be livin' on yet

walked on the water
raised 'em when they died
walked on the water
