Baptism Lyrics & Chords
By Mickey Cates | Kenny Chesney
(D)
The summer (Bm)
breeze made (G)
ripples on the (A)
pond (D)
And rattled through the (Bm)
reeds and the willow trees (A)
beyond (Bm)
Daddy in his (A)
good hat and (G)
mama in her (D)
Sunday dress Watched with pride as I (Bm)
stood there in the (G)
water up (A)
to my (D)
chest And the (C)
preacher spoke (G)
about the cleansing (D)
Blood (G)
As I sank my (D)
toes into that (Bm)
cool East Texas (A)
mud Chorus And it was (D)
down will the (Bm)
old man (G)
up (A)
with the (D)
new (G)
Raised to (D)
walk in the ways of (Bm)
light and (A)
truth I didn't see no (G)
angels, just a (D)
few saints on the (G)
shore And I (D)
felt like a (A)
new-born (Bm)
baby cradled (G)
up in the (A)
arms of the (D)
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 This road is long and dusty, Sometimes the soul, it must be cleansed And I long to feel that water, rushing over me again
