Original Broadway Cast of The Book of Mormon, Josh Gad, Nikki M. James - Baptize Me lyrics

Well, then, would you like to baptize me?

Pbbbt, sure, yea, that'd be great

Okay, let's do it

What you meannow?

Why not?

Well, to be honest, I've never done it before

That's okay, neither have I

Yes, that's true

Do you knowhow to baptize
Someone into the church?

Sure, that's something that we study over and
Over again at Mission Control Center

Then please, Elder Cunningham
I want to be baptized i swear to
Dedicate my life to the church

Huh, okay, I just need a second to get ready

Okay, I will get ready, too

I'm about to do it for the first time
And I'm gonna do it with a girl!
A special girl
Who makes my heart kind of flutter
Makes my eyes kind of blur
I can't believe I'm about to baptize her

He will baptize me
He will hold me in his arms
And he will baptize me
Right in front of everyone
And it will set me free
When he looks into my eyes
And he sees just how much
I love being baptized

I'm gonna baptize her

Baptize me!

Bathe her in God's glory!
And I will baptize her

I'm ready

With everything I got
And I'll make her beg for more

Oooh

As I wash her free of sin
And it'll be so good she'll want me to

Baptize her me again

Excuse me, I'm gonna need another minute!

Never known a boy so gentle
One like him is hard to find a special kind
Who makes my heart kind of flutter
Like a moth in a cocoon
I hope he gets to baptizing me soon!

I'm gonna baptize you
I'm through with all my stalling

You're gonna baptize me
I'm ready to let you do it

And it will set us free
It's time to be immersed
And I'm so happy you're about to be my first

Okay, you ready?

I am ready so how do we do it?

Well, I hold you like this -

- yeah?

And I lower you down -

- yeah?

And then I -

(Splash)

I just baptized her!
She got doused by Heavenly Father!
I just baptized her good!

You baptized me!

I performed like a champ!

I'm wet with salvation!

We just went all the way! Praise be to God
I'll never forget this day

I baptized you!

You baptized me!

I gotcha good!

Baptize me!

You want it more, baby?

Baptize me!

(spoken) i'll text you later
