Baptism Lyrics

  Send "Baptism (Kenny Chesney & Randy Travis)" Ringtone to your Cell  

The summer breeze, made ripples on the pond

Rattled through the rings and the willow trees beyond

Daddy in his good hat, mama in her Sunday dress

Watched in pride, as I stood there in the water up to my chest

And the preacher spoke about the cleansing blood

I sank my toes into that East Tennessee mud



And it was down with the old man, up with the new

Raised to walk in the way of light and truth

I didn't see no angels, just a few saints on the shore

But I felt like a new 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 went for 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

[Baptism (Kenny Chesney & Randy Travis) lyrics on http://www.elyricsworld.com]

For the blessed peace of mind that came to me that day



And it was down with the old man, up with the new

Raised to walk in the way of light and truth

I didn't see no angels, just a few saints on the shore

But I felt like a new baby, cradled up in the arms of the Lord



This road is long and dusty, sometimes the soul must be cleansed

And I long to feel that water, rushing over me again



Down with the old man, up with the new

Raised to walk in the way of light and truth

I didn't see no angels, just a few saints on the shore

But I felt like a new baby, cradled up in the arms of the Lord

I felt like a newborn baby, cradled up in the arms of the Lord
