Imperials - Water Grave lyrics

rate me

n my house there's been a mercy killing.

The man I used to be has been crucified.

And the death of this man was the final way of revealing,

In the spiritual way to live, I had to die.

Now if I let that dead man linger in me,

I might get a little idol in my way.

So, I'm going down to the celebration river,

And take this dead man down to a water grave.

Chorus:

I'm goin' down to the river.

And I'm gonna be buried alive.

I want to show my Heavenly Father,

The man I use to be has finally died.

Now when I think of where I'm goin',

In terms of where I've been,

It makes me glad to know, my Lord, that I've been born again.

Now when I think of where I'm goin',

In terms of where I've been,

It makes me glad to know, my Lord, that I've been born again.

Chorus
