Holy Water Lyrics

The preacher goes down to the stream

Filling a cup of broken dreams

Guided by faith and a heavy heart

He follows the path back to start

And he said

Give me hell or give me reason

I don't know what I'm gonna do

So afraid that I may falter

The devil's work I'd build anew

I'll drink the holy water

The holy water

The preacher goes up to the altar

Haunted by his many crimes

Guided by lust and a dirty mind

With a cross of rust, in the end he'll say

(He'll say)

Give me hell or give me reason

I don't know what I'm gonna do

So afraid that I may falter

The devil's work I'd build anew

I'll drink the holy water

Give me hell or give me reason

I don't know what I'm gonna do

So afraid that I may falter

The devil's work I'd build anew

Many crimes and juvenile slaughter

I'd say it's time to lock up your daughter

'Cause you know I'll come for you

And you'll drink the holy water

The holy water too
