Baptised (Kenny Chesney/Randy Travis)
note:  this is a great song that i worked out for a solo at my church.  good 
luck

{G} The summer breeze made {C} ripples on the {Em} pond
{G} Rattled through the reeds {C} and the willow trees {D} beyond
{G} Daddy in his good {C} hat momma in her Sunday {Em} dress
{G} Watched with pride as I stood there {C} in the water up to my {G} chest

{Em}Preacher spoke {C} about the cleansing {D} blood
And I {C} sank my toes into that {G} east Tennessee {D} mud

<CHORUS>
{G} Then it was down with {Em} the old man
{C} Up with the {D} new
{Em} Raised to walk {C} in the way of light and {D} truth
{Em} Didn't see no {C} angels, just a few saints on {G} shore
{Em} But I felt like a new born {C} baby
Cradled up {G} in the arms of the {C} Lord

{G} Amazing grace {C} oh how sweet the {Em} sound
{G} There was glory in the air, {C} there was dinner on the {D} ground
{G} My sins were {C} many where washed away and {Em} gone
{G} Along with a buffalo nickel {C} I forgot to leave it {G} home

{Em} That seems like {C} such a small small price to {D} pay
For the {C} blessed peace of mind {G} that came to me that {D} day

<REPEAT CHORUS>

{Em} This road is long and dusty 
{C} Sometimes a soul it must be {D} cleansed
 {Em} And I long to feel that water 
{C} Rushing over me {D} again

<REPEAT CHORUS>

Cradled up in the arms of the Lord
