Baptism |
The summer breeze made ripples on the pond |
And rattled through the reeds and the willow trees beyond |
Daddy in his good hat and mama in her Sunday dress |
Watched with pride as I stood there in the water up to my chest |
And the preacher spoke about the cleansing Blood |
As I sank my toes into that cool East Texas mud |
And it was down will the old man |
Up with the new |
Raised to walk in the ways of light and truth |
I didn’t see no angels, just a few saints on the shore |
And I felt like a new-born baby |
Cradled up in the arms of the Lord |
Amazing grace, oh how sweet the sound |
There was glory in the air, there was dinner on the ground |
And my sins which were many, were washed away and gone |
Along with a buffalo nickel I forgot to leave at home |
But that seemed like such a small, small price to pay |
For the blessed peace of mind that came to me that day |
TO CHORUS |
This road is long and dusty, |
Sometimes the soul, it must be cleansed |
And I long to feel that water, rushing over me again |
TO CHORUS |
