Verse 1:
I wade in the water
I stayed in the water
I prayed in the water
I bathed in the water
Spiritual showers cleansed me for an hour
Dipped in and I let go
Then God took control
I stepped in the water and the water was cold
It chilled my body
But not my soul
My mama was crying
And my Granny was praying to Bethlehem
Jordan and Zion
Lord just help me become a better man
There is love in the water
There is joy in the water
Heavenly, Heavenly
I'll go yup
Saw my soul
It floated up
Those Golden gates
They Opened up
Angels
Sitting next to him
Stepped in the water
The water was cold
Yeah it chilled my body
But not my soul

Verse:
See I Stepped in the water
The water was cold now
It chilled my body
But didn’t cool my soul down
Got word early, couldn’t move, like I was paralyzed
That’s how it felt when I got baptized
I had to let my pain go
No more looking back, time to let my spirit grow
Felt angels around me, I bet my aura glows
So glad I made it back down
To the river
So God could move all over me
I let the spirit take over me
No control I decreed
I wanted to be free
I needed to be covered again
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
