WATER GRAVE

WATER GRAVE

In my house there's been a mercy killing
The man I used to be has been crucified
And the death of this man was a final way of revealing
In a spiritual way to live I had to die

Now if I let a dead man linger in me
I might get a little idle in my ways
So I'm going down to the celebration river
I'm gonna take this dead man down to his water grave

I'm going down to the river my Lord
I'm gonna be buried alive
I want to show my heavenly father
The man I used to be finally died
I'm going down to the river, my Lord
I'm gonna be buried alive
I want to show my heavenly Father
The man I used to be finally died

When I think of where I'm going
It turns up where I've been
It makes me glad to know my Lord
That I've been born again.
