The Sign
water which is crystal clear
emits a purity we praise so dear
the element that washes clean
the symbol that Baptisms need
to wash away jealousy, envy,
greed and pride
the little bits of sin that gratified
flowing downward deep inside
our inner feelings melt the pride
with God's help it's multiplied
through Him sin is set aside
and washed away by the tide
His healing water purifies
