Lyrics for New Gospel

From the day this thing started To the day I'm gonna sing this song I'm afraid I've been feeling this way Far too long I only wanted to do I only wanted to do what I thought was right How was I to know how it'd end up that night? And the hardest part is trying to get you to understand My alibi's dead And I've got blood on my hands Put me in the water And wash it all away Put me in the water And help me find my way No one ever said it'd be easy For some people it ain't hard at all I've found there ain't no turning When I hear the call They say the death of the good thing's been known to kill And the way things are now Well it's just too real One has got to chose One has got to chose his road in this life I only wanted to do I only wanted to do what I thought was right And now my fate's uncertain 'Til the day I die Lord I'm ready Lord I'm ready to testify Put me in the water And wash it all away Put me in the water And help me find my way No one ever said it'd be easy For some people it ain't hard at all I've found there ain't no turning When I hear the call Put me in the water And wash it all away Put me in the water And help me find my way No one ever said it'd be easy For some people it ain't hard at all I've found there ain't no turning When I hear the call
