When you pass through the waters,

I will be with you, I'll watch over you

When you walk through the valleys,

I will comfort you,

For I am the Lord your God who lights the way

There's no need to be afraid

Don't let the past keep holding you back

Don't lose the dream in which you believe

For I want to do, deep within you, something new

When you're dry as a desert, you can drink from me

water rich and free

When you need some forgiveness

I will show you mercy and light a fire

That will burn a brand new road

It will show you where to go

Don't let the past keep holding you back

Don't lose the dream in which you believe

For I want to do, deep within you, something new

You can make a difference, for a better way

But living for tomorrow means making the best of today

Turn the page and you will see,

just how rich your life could be

Don't let the past keep holding you back

Just watch the dream be reality

Open your heart so that I can do something new

Open your heart so that I can do something new
