Baptism



Randy Travis and Kenny Chesney



the summer breaze,made ripples on the pond

and rattled through the reeds and the willow trees boyound



daddy in his good hat, mamma in her sunday dress

watched with pride, as i stood there in the water up to my chest



and the preacher spoke about the clensing blood

and i sank my toes into the east tennessee mud



then it was down with the old man and up with the new

raised to walk in the way of life and truth

I didnt see no angels just a few saints on the shore

But 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 buffalow nickel, I forgot to leave at home



That semed like such a small small price to pay

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



and it was down with the old man and up with the new

raised to walk in the way of life and truth



I didnt see no angels just a few saints on the shore

But i felt like a new born baby, cradled up in the arms of the lord



This road is long and dusty sometimes a soul it must be cleansed

And i long to feel that water rushing over me again



and it was down with the old man and up with the new

raised to walk in the way of life and truth



I didnt see no angels just a few saints on the shore

But i felt like a new born baby, cradled up in the arms of the lord



But i felt like a new born baby, cradled up in the arms of the lord
