Song lyrics

Standing at the water's edge
I dropped my dreams when I dropped my nets.
No hesitation, no regrets,
I followed you but that was then,
And this is now.

You washed my feet and you changed my name.
I swore I'd never be the same
But just like the tides I guess people change
'Cause that was then and this is now.

I wish I could go back but I don't know how.
I remember when I stood my ground,
I swore I'd never let you down.
I want to be that man again
But that was then and this is now.

I watched the blind man lift his head
And look his savior in the eyes.
I heard a dead man take a breath,
Dropped to my knees as I watched him rise.

And I felt the sea beneath my feet
As I stepped out on the angry waves.
But you saw the storm raging within,
You reached out and calmed me then
But this is now.

I wish I could go back but I don't know how.
I remember when I stood my ground,
I swore I'd never let you down.
I want to be that man again
But that was then and this is now.

Just when I thought my sin had closed the door,
I see my savior standing on the shore
With arms wide open.
Just like the first time you called my name,
You said that was then and this is now.

My child, I bore your cross, I wore your crown,
When you couldn't come to me, my love came down.
So take my hand, I'll lead you out
'Cause that was then and this is now.

My child I bore your cross, I wore your crown,
You couldn't come to me so my love came down.
Take my hand, I'll lead you out,
You'll never be that man again
'Cause that was then and this is now.
