by FLAME, George Rose

Album: Word and Water

Chorus: George.Rose
Why wait, why wait?
Uh-huh
Why wait?
Be baptized
Why wait, why wait?
Uh-huh
Why wait?
Be baptized

Verse 1: FLAME
Saul was all on the road
On the Damascus road
Persecuting was a goon
Scripture said it was about noon
Then the light of heaven shone
"Saul
Why did you persecute me?"
"Lord
I don't even know who you be"
"The one you are persecuting
I am Jesus the Nazarene"
Then, He said what should I do
Jesus spoke, "Rise up and go
Into Damascus you'll be told"
When you get there, what you're supposed to do?
Light too bright, got blinded
By his hand got guided
Then met Ananias
Devout man stood by him
What he say, what he say?
He said, "Paul receive your sight"
Scales (Scale like) fell from his eyes
Spirit filled his life
Why wait? Be baptized
Scripture tells us why
It washes away your sins
Not just symbolizes
Nice

Chorus: George.Rose
Why wait, why wait?
Uh-huh
Why wait?
Be baptized
Why wait, why wait?
Uh-huh
Why wait?
Be baptized

Verse 2: FLAME
Take a minute, read the Scriptures on baptism without your presuppositions
And the washings in the Old Testament, like Naaman washed in the Jordan River
Don't forget the Levitical, priestly washings and Ezekiel's Vision
You get the picture from the Scripture that baptism is now the fulfillment (Connect that)
Sometimes water drowns: God use it to judge
Sometimes water saves: think of Noah's flood
They in the boat, the boat was floating
Window opened, then Noah sent out a dove
The second time the dove came in
In her mouth was an olive leaf freshly plucked
Peter said they were saved through the water
Like Israel was saved through the water
When Moses split the Red Sea
He judged some and made sons and daughters (Out of others)
It's by faith, it's not magic
Don't have faith you can access
Forgiveness
If you resist, then that's it
But if it's repentance happening by the Spirit, then I'm asking

Chorus: George.Rose
Why wait, why wait?
Uh-huh
Why wait?
Be baptized
Why wait, why wait?
Uh-huh
Why wait?
Be baptized

Why wait, why wait?
Uh-huh
Why wait?
Be baptized
Why wait, why wait?
Uh-huh
Why wait?
Be baptized
