Description
"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.  Lyric video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l0xhhG1Hyos Dr. Todd Grande's video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OMkrosLHIEs Lyrics: God, I'm on my knees again God, I'm begging please again I need You Oh, I need You Walking down these desert roads Water for my thirsty soul I need You Oh, I need You Your forgiveness Is like sweet, sweet honey on my lips Like the sound of a symphony to my ears Like holy water on my skin, hey!
