Don’t Go Swimming lyrics

I heard a preacher say when you repent
There's a place where all your sins are sent
Full of water, mirky and dim
With a sign saying, "Please don't swim"

Somewhere there's a deep dark sea
Swirling with our iniquity
Full of our forgiven sins
That God says He won't bring up again
Your past ain't worth wading through
If God don't remember, neither should you
And don't go swimming
In the sea of forgetfulness

And when the Father says He won't recall
That means that He won't remember at all
You know we all love old memories
But the sign says, "Don't swim please"

Somewhere there's a deep dark sea
Swirling with our iniquity
Full of our forgiven sins
That God says He won't bring up again
Your past ain't worth wading through
If God don't remember, neither should you
And don't go swimming
In the sea of forgetfulness
Somewhere there's a deep dark sea
Swirling with our iniquity
Full of our forgiven sins
That God says He won't bring up again
Your past ain't worth wading through
If God don't remember, neither should you
Don't go swimming
In the sea of forgetfulness
Oh, don't go swimming
In the sea of forgetfulness
Don't!
