Randy Travis - Baptism Lyrics
BaptismRandy Travis and Kenny Chesneythe summer breaze,made ripples on the pondand rattled through the reeds and the willow trees boyounddaddy in his good hat, mamma in her sunday dresswatched with pride, as i stood there in the water up to my chestand the preacher spoke about the clensing bloodand i sank my toes into the east tennessee mudthen it was down with the old man and up with the newraised to walk in the way of life and truthI didnt see no angels just a few saints on the shoreBut i felt like a new born baby, cradled up in the arms of the lordAmazing Grace, Oh how sweet the sound, there was glory in the airthere was dinner on the groundAnd my sins which were many were washed away and goneAlong with a buffalow nickel, I forgot to leave at homeThat semed like such a small small price to payFor the blessed peace of mind that came to me that dayand it was down with the old man and up with the newraised to walk in the way of life and truthI didnt see no angels just a few saints on the shoreBut i felt like a new born baby, cradled up in the arms of the lordThis road is long and dusty sometimes a soul it must be cleansedAnd i long to feel that water rushing over me againand it was down with the old man and up with the newraised to walk in the way of life and truthI didnt see no angels just a few saints on the shoreBut i felt like a new born baby, cradled up in the arms of the lordBut i felt like a new born baby, cradled up in the arms of the lord
