I stepped into the river,
Sank up to my knees in the mud
Beneath that cleansing flood
There was something about the water
There was power in the blood
For the firs time in my life, i felt clean
Chorus:
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 preacher man took me under
Beneath that cleansing flood
For the first time in my life, i felt clean
Chorus
Oh, the blood of jesus (3x)
That washes withe and clean, i felt clean
Clean, i felt clean (3x)
