Goin' Down to the River
Well I'm goin down to the river to get myself baptized
I'm goin down to the river to get myself baptized
Jesus done saved my poor ol soul and he opened up my eyes
Been a sinner way too long should've done this a long time ago
Been a sinner way too long should've done this a long time ago
Tried to do it all by myself but I couldn't do it on my own
I ran away from God all those years but He finally caught up to me
I ran away from God all those years but He finally caught up to me
I ask Him to forgive all my sins and He did now I am free
Yes I'm goin down in that water
To wash away these sins
Goin down in that water
To wash away these sins
It's a one way street to Heaven won't be back this way again
Well sinner if you're still runnin stop right where you're at
Sinner if you're still runnin stop right where you're at
Cause once you take that final breath you ain't coming back
If the Holy Spirit's calling you then open up your heart
If the Holy Spirit's calling you then open up your heart
He'll only call you for so long and then He will depart
Now people are you ready are you ready to go
Now people are you ready are you ready to go
Cause when you least expect Him the trumpets gonna blow
So give your heart to Jesus make up your mind
So give your heart to Jesus make up your mind
When He comes back in that cloud don't be left behind
Well I'm goin down to the river to get myself baptized
I'm goin down to the river to get myself baptized
Jesus done saved my poor ol soul and he opened up my eyes
Jesus done saved my poor ol soul and he opened up my eyes
I'm goin down to the river to get myself baptized
Jesus done saved my poor ol soul and he opened up my eyes
Been a sinner way too long should've done this a long time ago
Been a sinner way too long should've done this a long time ago
Tried to do it all by myself but I couldn't do it on my own
I ran away from God all those years but He finally caught up to me
I ran away from God all those years but He finally caught up to me
I ask Him to forgive all my sins and He did now I am free
Yes I'm goin down in that water
To wash away these sins
Goin down in that water
To wash away these sins
It's a one way street to Heaven won't be back this way again
Well sinner if you're still runnin stop right where you're at
Sinner if you're still runnin stop right where you're at
Cause once you take that final breath you ain't coming back
If the Holy Spirit's calling you then open up your heart
If the Holy Spirit's calling you then open up your heart
He'll only call you for so long and then He will depart
Now people are you ready are you ready to go
Now people are you ready are you ready to go
Cause when you least expect Him the trumpets gonna blow
So give your heart to Jesus make up your mind
So give your heart to Jesus make up your mind
When He comes back in that cloud don't be left behind
Well I'm goin down to the river to get myself baptized
I'm goin down to the river to get myself baptized
Jesus done saved my poor ol soul and he opened up my eyes
Jesus done saved my poor ol soul and he opened up my eyes
