Baptized
Baptized: Embracing Redemption Through Deep Waters
Lyrics
There's a place, there's a river that beckons me
Refers to a beckoning place with a river, symbolizing a spiritual journey or experience.
Where the current is strong and the water's deep
Describes the challenging and profound nature of the spiritual journey.
That's where I found You
Suggests a personal connection with a divine presence or higher power.
Or maybe You found me
Highlights the uncertainty of who initiated the connection, emphasizing a mutual encounter.
That's the day that this prisoner was released
Symbolizes a transformative event where the speaker feels liberated.
There is healing in the water
Implies that the river's water has healing properties.
When you find that river of life
Emphasizes the positive impact of finding the "river of life" on one's well-being.
There's a freedom like no other
Conveys a unique and profound sense of freedom resulting from the spiritual experience.
When you come out baptized
Links the idea of baptism to a special form of liberation and transformation.
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Repetition of the word "baptized" and vocalizations to emphasize the significance of the experience.
Oh oh oh, baptized yeah
-Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
-Oh oh oh, baptized yeah
-All of my shame washing away in the cleansing flood
Expresses the cleansing and purifying nature of the spiritual experience, removing feelings of shame.
My new beginning has finally begun
Describes the start of a new phase or chapter in the speaker's life.
Tell you the secret? Would you believe it?
Asks if the listener is willing to hear and believe a secret related to the transformative experience.
I've been saved by the power of Jesus' love
Attributes the speaker's salvation to the powerful love of Jesus.
There is healing in the water
