Very nostalgic song for me, my parents always used to play it on cassete tape during long car journeys. It was probably my favourite song when I was 5 years old.
I don't think it's lost any of it's magic. Just wanted to upload a Higher quality version, original format was lossless AAC. Performed by Eva Cassiday in 1997. RIP.
Lyrics:
Wade in the water
Wade in the water
Children wade, in the water
God's gonna trouble the water
Who's that young girl dressed in red
Wade in the water
Must be the children that Moses led
God's gonna trouble the water
[Chorus:]
Wade in the water, wade in the water children
Wade in the water,
God's gonna trouble the water
Who's that young girl dressed in white
Wade in the water
Must be the children of the Israelite
Oh, God's gonna trouble the water
[Chorus:]
Who's that young girl dressed in blue
Wade in the water
Must be the children that's coming through,
God's gonna trouble the water, yeah
[Chorus:]
You don't believe I've been redeemed,
Wade in the water
Just so the whole lake goes looking for me
God's gonna trouble the water
