Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Every Sunday I see people
Filing in through those front doors
Got a cross up on that steeple
Yeah, it's time to praise the Lord
Some watch it on their TV, sittin' on the couch
Me, I get in my old Bronco and point those headlights out
Oh, ain't got too many miles to go
To save my soul
[Chorus]
Yeah, I go down and sink my feet in the water
And I soak up that sun and I watch it set
Yeah, I can feel the power of the saltwater gospel
I'm as close to God as I can get
Whoa, whoa, yeah
[Verse 2]
Now there ain't nothing wrong
With puttin' on your Sunday best
And me, I won't be wearin'
Something that I can't get wet
And if you think about how small we are and life after we're gone
I'm out here by myself, but I know I'm not alone
Yeah, I got all the proof I need
And it sure makes me believe
[Chorus]
When I go down and sink my feet in the water
And I soak up that sun and I watch it set
Yeah, I can feel the power of the saltwater gospel
I'm as close to God as I can get
Whoa, whoa, yeah
[Bridge]
Amen
I'm in Heaven when I watch the waves roll in
Amen
When I'm lost, I know where to get found again
[Chorus]
Yeah, I go down and sink my feet in the water
And I soak up that sun and I watch it set
Yeah, I can feel the power of the saltwater gospel
I'm as close to God as I can get
You got it, Jimmy
Yeah, I go down and sink my feet in the water
And I soak up that sun and I watch it set
Yeah, I can feel the power of the saltwater gospel
I'm as close to God as I can get (Amen)
Whoa, whoa, yeah
Whoa, whoa, yeah
