I said wade in the water
Wade in the water
Children wade, in the water
God's gonna trouble the water

Oh wade, in the water
Wade in the water
Children wade, in the water
God's gonna trouble the water

Oh look at those babies dressed in red
God's gonna trouble the water
Oh they must be the babies that Moses led
God's gonna trouble the water

Wade in the water, wade in the water
Children wade in the water,
God's gonna trouble the water

Oh Jesus left the woman
Met her at the well
God's gonna trouble the water
He's leaving, look out lady
Your heaven for hell
God's gonna trouble the water

I said wade in the water
Wade in the water
Children wade, in the water
God's gonna trouble the water

Oh let I get the heaven
Singing shout
God's gonna trouble the water
Oh nobody there turned me out
God's gonna trouble the water

I said wade in the water
Wade in the water
Children wade, in the water
God's gonna trouble the water
I said God's gonna trouble the water
I said God's gonna trouble the water
