Traveling down a country road on one Sunday morn'
I saw a crowd at the creek on a little country farm
I thought I'd move closer in so I might see and hear
Why they looked so happy there without a thing to fear
Was a good old country baptizing I was at that day
They'd preach awhile and sang awhile then all knelt down and pray
God's spirit seemed to fill the air and every soul was meek
At a good old country baptizing down at the creek
I heard a low and gentle voice inviting me to come in
We are glad to have you here welcome my friend
We've held a great revival sir up at the Church all week
Now we're having our baptizing here in the creek
Was a good old country baptizing I was at that day
They'd preach awhile and sang awhile then all knelt down and pray
God's spirit seemed to fill the air and every soul was meek
At a good old country baptizing down at the creek
I was glad I could be among happy among that happy throng
To see Him wash their sins away while they're at their own
You could almost hear them say with a smile upon their face
I'm ready now to move along unto my resting place
Was a good old country baptizing I was at that day
They'd preach awhile and sang awhile then all knelt down and pray
God's spirit seemed to fill the air and every soul was meek
At a good old country baptizing down at the creek
Well, it was a good old country baptizing I was at that day
They'd preach awhile and sang awhile then all knelt down and pray
God's spirit seemed to fill the air and every soul was meek
At a good old country baptizing down at the creek
There was a good old country baptizing I was at that day
They'd preach awhile and sang awhile then all knelt down and pray
God's spirit seemed to fill the air and every soul was meek
At a good old country baptizing down at the creek
