I been sinking deep in sin
Been hoping you could take me in
I been feeling down and low
Wash me make me white as snow
Because I had been struggling to stay alive
I keep fighting all these problems that Im have deep inside
I heard a preacher say my sins can be cleaned
Tired of pretending, I'm not as good as I seem
Sick of pain and hurt, can't seem make it work
My worth is like dirt, not fit to walk in this earth
I can't do this on my own, not without you
So They buried me in the water, I came out new
Now I'm walking in a new life
No more darkness I'm seeing in a new light
No more pain nor strife
Because I was healed by your stripes
Died to my old self I'm a new man
You knew me before my birth, formed by your two hands
Father, in your holy name I pray
Thank you for washing my sins away
Thank you for turning my night to day
Because I was so ready to give my life away.
Now I hope your example, is what I might display
I follow Jesus Christ and all his righteous ways
No longer have to pretend
Now i'm here waiting to see your spirit descend
Like a dove from above and bring fire to my soul
Baptized in the water and I've been made whole singing
