I stepped into the river
Sank up to my knees in the mud
The preacher man took me under
Beneath that cleansing flood
There was something about the water
There was power in the blood
For the first time in my life, I felt clean
Clean, I felt clean
Clean, I felt clean
There was something in the water
There was power in the blood
For the first time in my life, I felt clean
I just could not forget it
It would not let me be
You see the past was there to haunt me
It had it's chains on me
Then the preacher man took me under
Beneath that cleansing flood
For the first time in my life, I felt clean
Clean, I felt clean
Clean, I felt clean
There was something in the water
There was power in the blood
For the first time in my life, I felt clean
Oh, the blood of Jesus
Oh, the blood of Jesus
Oh, the blood of Jesus
That washes white as snow
Clean, I felt clean
Clean, I felt clean
Clean, I felt clean
Eu entrei no rio
Afundei-me até os joelhos na lama
O pastor tomou-me
Debaixo daquele dilúvio de limpeza
Havia algo sobre a água
Havia poder no sangue
Pela primeira vez na minha vida, eu me senti limpo
Limpo, eu me senti limpo
Limpo, eu me senti limpo
Havia algo na água
Havia poder no sangue
Pela primeira vez na minha vida, eu me senti limpo
Eu simplesmente não conseguia esquecê-la
Ele não me deixava em paz
Você vê o passado estava lá para me assombrar
Ele tinha me acorrentado
Então o pregador tomou-me
Debaixo daquele dilúvio de limpeza
Pela primeira vez na minha vida, eu me senti limpo
Limpo, eu me senti limpo
Limpo, eu me senti limpo
Havia algo na água
Havia poder no sangue
Pela primeira vez na minha vida, eu me senti limpo
Oh, o sangue de Jesus
Oh, o sangue de Jesus
Oh, o sangue de Jesus
Que lava e deixa tão branco quanto a neve
Limpo, eu me senti limpo
Limpo, eu me senti limpo
Limpo, eu me senti limpo
