Today
I cried tears of joy
knowing You were waiting for me
to drown my sins
to wash me clean fill me with wonder
in the midst of the congregation
my new family
I openly wept and laughed
at the same time
in the arms of my friends
who got wet holding me tightly in return
today I found my way
this is where I am to stay
to give my love and energy away
while gaining the same tenfold
today I found peace
and forgiveness
today I found my soul
under water at my baptism
