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 |
