Baptize Me In The Cumberland River

Baptize Me in the Cumberland River

Baptize me in the Cumberland River

Let old Satan look at me

Brother Johnny let me down quickly

for the Lord is calling me.

Oh praise the Lord, glory hallilueah

The Heavenly lights are shining on me.

Baptize me in the Cumberland River

wash my sins out to the sea.

Standing by the old Cumberland River

My friend on earth is harmony

and I walk out into deep water

and I go down she's praying for me.

Oh praise the Lord, glory hallilueah

The Heavenly lights are shining on me.

Baptize me in the Cumberland River

wash my sins out to the sea.

Lord I want to walk in your footsteps

I'm gonna stand close by your side.

While here on earth I'll be your helper.

The truth I'll tell and never lie.
