In my house there痴 been a mercy killing,
The man I used to be is crucified,
And the death of this man is the final way of revealing,
In the spiritual way to live, I had to die.
Now if I let this dead man linger in me I might grow a little idle in my ways,
I知 going down to the celebration river; gonna take this dead man down to a water grave.
I知 going down to the river, my Lord,
I知 gonna be buried alive,
And I知 gonna show my heavenly Father the man I used to be has finally died.
I think of where I知 going in terms of where I致e been,
Makes me glad I致e been born again,
Makes me glad, Lord.
I知 going down to the river, my Lord,
I知 gonna be buried alive,
And I知 gonna show my heavenly Father the man I used to be has finally died,
I知 going down to the river, my Lord,
And I知 gonna be buried alive,
I知 wanna show my heavenly Father the man I used to be has finally died.
