[D] [Bm]
[G] [D]
The [Bm] summer breeze [Gm] made ripples on [A] the pond
[D]
And rattled through [Bm] the reeds [G] and the willow trees [A] beyond
[Bm]
Daddy in [A] his good hat [G] and Mama in her Sunday [D] dress
[G]
Watched with pride [D] as I stood there [Em] and the [A] water up to [D] my chest
[C] And the preacher [G] spoke about the [D] cleansing blood
[G] As I sank [D] my toes into [Em] that cool East [A] Texas mud
It [D] was down [Bm] with the old [G] man,
[A] up [D] with the new
[G]
[D] Raised to walk in the [Em] ways of light and [A] truth
[Bm] I didn't see [G] no angels, [D] just a few saints [G] on the shore
[D] But I felt [A] like a [Bm] newborn [A] baby [G] cradled [A] up in the [D] arms of the Lord
[Bm]
[G] [D]
[E] Amazing [Bm] grace, [G] oh how sweet the [A] sound
[D] There was glory [Bm] in the air, [G] there was dinner [A] on the ground
[Bm] And my sins, [A] which were many, [G] were washed away [D] and gone
[G] Along with a [D] buffalo nickel, [Em] I forgot [A] to [D] leave at home
But [C] that seemed like [G] such a small, [D] small price to pay
[G] For the blessed [D]
peace of mind [Em] that came to me that
[A] day
It [D] was down [Bm] with the old [G] man,
[A] up [D] with the new
[G]
[D] Raised to walk in the [Em] ways of [A] light and truth
[Bm] I didn't see [G] no angels, [D] just a few saints [G] on the shore
[D] But I felt [A] like a [Bm] newborn [A] baby [G] cradled [A] up in the [D] arms of the Lord
[C] This road is long [G] and dusty, [Em] sometimes a soul [A] that must [D] be cleansed
[C] And I long to feel [G] that water [Em] rushing over me [A]
again

[A] [D] [G]
[D] [Em]
[D] [A] [Bm] I didn't see [G] no angels, [D] just a few saints [G] on the shore
[D] But I felt [A] like a newborn [B] [A] baby [G] cradled [A] up in the [Bm] arms of the [E] Lord
I [D] felt [A] like a newborn [Bm]
[A] baby [G] cradled [A] up in the arms [D] of [Bm] the Lord
