Baptized Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I don't want to look around
And be turned to stone
All my darkest days awoken
I'm looking for a new way
Can't make it on my own
Lead me to a place wide open

[Pre-Chorus]
I need a love that takes me higher
So high I'm never coming down

[Chorus]
I don't want to know emptiness
Take me down to the water
Want to be baptized in your love
Far away from the loneliness
Take my heart and wash away the fear
Let me be baptized in your love

[Verse 2]
Everybody's going down
They end up all alone
Far too many words unspoken
I know I got to be there
I'm ready to be shown
The path of righteousness unbroken
[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
I would be a fool to let you go
With you I'm reborn
I'm no longer torn
Yeah
I refuse to lose my heart and soul
I have to be strong

[Guitar solo]

[Chorus]

[Break]
Baptized, baptized
Want to be baptized in your love

[Chorus] [x2]
