Okay, let's do it.       What you mean...now? Why not?

            C       C/E  F9
Well, to be honest, I've-  I've never done it before

                                    C   C/E       F9
That's okay, neither have I! Hahaha yes,   that's true

Then please, Elder Cunningham, I want to be baptized. 

                                                 C  C/E F2

Okay, I will get ready, too.

He will baptize me! He will hold me in his arms,

And he will baptize me! Right in front of everyone

            G   G/B C             B             Em 
And it will set me  free. When he looks into my eyes.

And he sees just how much I  love being baptized...

And I'll make her beg for more, (Oooh)

            C      C/E  F      E       E/G# Am7          
And it will set us free.  It's time to be immersed.
