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 the final way of revealing
That in the spiritual way to live, I had to die

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

I'm goin' down to the river
And I'm gonna be buried alive
I want to show my Heavenly Father
The man I used to be has finally died

Now, when I think of where I'm goin'
In terms of where I've been
It makes me glad to know, my Lord, that I've been born again

Now, when I think of where I'm goin'
In terms of where I've been
It makes me glad to know, my Lord, that I've been born again

I'm goin' down to the river
And I'm gonna be buried alive
I want to show my Heavenly Father
The man I used to be has finally died
