Verse 1
I found myself, down, by the waters edge,
I felt my hands begin to tremble, and I believed what the preacher said,
He said, you must be born again,
baptized for all your sin,
Oh, When I went down, I was bound,
But I came up free, no chains on me.
Chorus
Muddy water, washing over me,
I never thought that I, could be made clean,
You see I’ve been to the river, so many times,
But when I called His name,
The water was changed,
And so was I.
Verse 2
Naman was a man, sick, with leprosy,
He was commander of an army, but he was weak, from his disease.
The prophet said, lay aside your pride,
By Jordan’s Riverside,
It was only dirty water,
Til he went down, for he seventh time!
Bridge
Through faith in Jesus,
My soul,
Is whiter than snow,
Thank God I Know,
That’s its the power, of his name, that makes me whole!
