baptized

i can still see the steeple, a little church on the hill, there was a line at the altar, every pew had been filled, i remember the water, the choir singing old hymns, there was a peace in the valley, oh, as the preacher man, he said: in the name of the father, the name of the son, the name of the spirit, you're washed by the blood, and buried with christ, raised in new life, baptized, i can still hear the sermon, all the people, said "amen", there was a gift of salvation, and you could be born again, i remember the power, the holy spirit rushing in, there was peace like a river, when the preacher man said: in the name of the father, the name of the son, the name of the spirit, you're washed by the blood, and buried with christ, raised in new life, baptized, all those old stained glass windows, and the stories they tell, all the memories as clear, as the day i was there, all those years i spent running, you've given me back, and now i'm stepping in, oh, i'm stepping in, oh, i'm stepping in, in the name of the father, the name of the son, the name of the spirit, washed by the blood, and buried with christ, raised in new life, baptized, oh, in the name of the father, the name of the son, the name of the spirit, washed by the blood, i'm buried with christ, i've been raised in new life, baptized, i can still see the steeple, a little church on the hill
