Inspired by the baptism of my friend, and by Matthew 3
Verse 1:
Jesus walked down that day to the Jordan river there
Where His cousin John prepared the way
As He stood on the muddy bank, He watched with tender eyes
The people would sink and then come up with a new life
Chorus 1:
He said this is My father's will
And I am His son, but still
You must baptize Me now
to show the people how
Verse 2:
Jesus sank down below the water's murky brim
A voice echoed this is My Son, I am well pleased with Him
And to all who follow Him my grace wears no disguise
Put your weight on that step of faith, sink down and be baptized
Chorus 2:
You know this is the Father's will
And He's waiting even still
The choice must be made now
Will you come and humbly bow
Bridge:
All the power that raised Him from the grave
To you He freely gave
To free you from your sin
Now you have been born again
Verse 3:
The year was 1999, the choice was hers to make
To walk the pathway earthly or divine
Whitney chose the Lord that day, you could see it in her eyes
As she drowned her sinful heart and came up with a new life
Chorus 3:
She said this is my Father's will
I'm His child from now until
Forever passes by, where I will never die
I'll be singing in the sky
I'll be singing in the sky
