| Lyrics Songs with original christian words by Randy Hogsett The Plan The Plan (I Got Baptized in the Ohio River) Lyrics by Randy Hogsett Verse 1: Thinking about my childhood, and how I looked up to my dad He got me my own Bible, and he taught me about God's plan He said you've got to believe in Jesus, and repent of all your sins Confess that He's your savior, and be baptized for remission of sin We read about Paul and the people who were saved on his missions We read about Timothy and all the other early Christians Chorus Then I got baptized in the Ohio River Early one foggy morning with the rain coming down And as I rose to my new life, ooh the sun came out A rainbow appeared in the sky, what a beautiful sign Verse 2: Now I'm a little older, I've got children of my own Like my father did before me, I try to teach them what I know I say you've got to believe in Jesus, and repent of all your sins Confess that He's your savior, and be baptized for remission of sin I show them in the Bible how the early Christians followed this plan I tell them how their daddy's immortal though he's only a man Chorus: And how I got baptized in the Ohio River Early one foggy morning with the rain coming down And as I rose to my new life, ooh the sun came out A rainbow appeared in the sky, oh what a beautiful sign Coda (4 times): Believe, repent, confess and be baptized Rise with Jesus to a brand new life Gonna live forever and for all eternity Gonna do it like they did it in the first century Mr. Golden's There audio clip By Randy Hogsett Well I tried to call you 'Reverend', but you said you're just a man Then you sat me down and showed me God's holy salvation plan I wasn't ready for commitment, but you planted my first seed I'm so thankful that you lived what you believed Well I kept on thinkin' 'bout you, Mister Golden and your words But I tried to do things my way, tried to live without the Lord This went on through adolescence, up until that fateful day When you saw me sinning, you loved me enough to say: Chorus Do you want to go to Heaven, or do you want to go down there Don't you know you'll live forever, don't you know you determine where Well I first resisted, God bless you Preacher, you persisted And I still keep thinkin' 'bout you, Mister Golden there on high How I'd still be lost without you, and how you touched so many lives I know you gave God all the credit, but I still would like to say Thank you, Mister Golden, for telling me that day Chorus Heaven is His Home By Randy Hogsett There's one God up in the sky And He's everywhere I go He made the sunlight, earth, and seas And Heaven is His home He loved me so much that to save me He sent his only child And though I tortured, mocked, and killed him He loved me all the while Sometimes I doubt He's there for me Then He touches me and I know He'll provide for me and keep His promise Prepare Heaven for my home There's one God up in the sky He's where I want to go I'll lift his name and sing his praises Until Heaven calls me home Home |
