George.Rose, FLAME - Why Wait! lyrics

Why wait, why wait? Uh huh
Why wait? Be baptized
Why wait, why wait? Uh huh
Why wait? Be baptized

Saul was all on the road
On the Damascus road persecuting was a goon
Scripture said it was about noon
Then the light of heaven shone "Saul
Why did you persecute me?" "Lord
I don't even know who you be"
"The one you are persecuting
I am Jesus the Nazarene"
Then, He said what should I do
Jesus spoke, "Rise up and go
Into Damascus you'll be told"
When you get there
What you're supposed to do?
Light too bright, got blindеd
By his hand got guided then met Ananias
Dеvout man stood by him
What he say, what he say?
He said, "Paul receive your site"
Scales (Scale like) fell from his eyes
Spirit filled his life why wait? Be baptized
Scripture tells us why
It washes away your sins not just symbolizes
Nice

Why wait, why wait? Uh huh
Why wait? Be baptized
Why wait, why wait? Uh huh
Why wait? Be baptized

Take a minute
Read the Scriptures on baptism
Without your presuppositions
And the washings in the Old Testament
Like Naaman washed in the Jordan River
Don't forget the Levitical
Priestly washings and Ezekiel's Vision
You get the picture from the Scripture
That baptism is now the fulfillment
(Connect that)
Sometimes water drowns: God use it to judge
Sometimes water saves: think of Noah's flood
They in the boat, the boat was floating
Window opened, then Noah sent out a dove
The second time the dove came in
In her mouth was an
Olive leaf freshly plucked
Peter said they were saved through the water
Like Israel was saved through the water
When Moses split the Red Sea
He judged some and made sons and daughters
(Out of others)
It's by faith, it's not magic
Don't have faith you can access forgiveness
If you resist, then that's it
But if it's repentance happening
By the Spirit, Then I'm asking

Why wait, why wait? Uh huh
Why wait? Be baptized
Why wait, why wait? Uh huh
Why wait? Be baptized

Why wait, why wait? Uh huh
Why wait? Be baptized
Why wait, why wait? Uh huh
Why wait? Be baptized
