Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Count to three and say a prayer
Down for love and up for air
Underwater, overjoyed
Water for a thirsty soul
Water for a thirsty soul

Baptize me into Your love
Oh my spirit's overcome
Body, mind, and skin, bone
Love Him, wanna make it known
Love Him, wanna make it known

I'm comin' alive with You
I'm comin' alive with You
I was livin' a lie 'til you
I'm comin' alive with You

All the people say
Amen!

Resurrection day is here
Bells are ringin' loud and clear
Caterpillar to a butterfly
Risen to another life
Risen to another life

Yeah, I'm comin' alive with You
I'm comin' alive with You
I was livin' a lie 'til you
I'm comin' alive with You

All the people say

Hey I don't know if you remember this but you sent a letter and a signed autograph to a girl that was having Spinal surgery. I am that girl and I am so greatful for it. Thank you! I was filled with the Holy Ghost when I was seven and baptised only days before my birthday. I thought it was so cool that you guys did that for me. I wear the necklace everyday and whenever my friends asked where I got my necklace I tell them everything. After four weeks of recovering tomorrow I am going back to school and I am so scared to go back so I have listened to this song the whole time and whenever it comes on I have a smile on my face. Thank you for everything because I was not in very good spirits and I had origanally lost faith in God that I would never be able to walk again and this song reminded me that he puts us through trials and he is there the whole time. THANK YOU!! I really hoep that you see this. If not that is okay I just wanted to thank you for everything you have done! Even if you do not see this I want others to know that God healed me and I am now able to do something that I have never been able to do before and that he can heal you too!!

Now I'm back after 2 days of school and everything is going great! I have some of my friends that have to help me get to every class and I get to stay back after class for a few minutes to let the halls clear before I go to my locker to get my stuff so I don't get bumped into. Overall everything is going great and I want to say one more thank you because I would not have made it through this battle without God and this song. THANK YOU AGIAIN!!!
