Teddy Cross sings a lead in this rendition of this song.

LYRICS: WITH GOD I'M SATISFIED

I’ve been down to the water
and I’ve been baptized
Now my soul is wiped clean
With God I’m satisfied

Lead singer:
I had been wandering around
in sin much too long
I didn’t have a true God
I didn’t have a God I could call my own

Suddenly it came to me
I had to leave this world of toil and misery
I had to find a sweet resting place
for my soul to spend eternity

I’ve been down to the water
and I’ve been baptized
Now my soul is wiped clean
With God I’m satisfied

All my friends, they laughed at me
when I told them from sin I’d been set free
But every time they tried to knock me down
God put another star in my crown.

I’ve been down to the water
and I’ve been baptized
Now my soul is wiped clean
With God I’m satisfied

These are the basic lyrics to this song as transcribed by Azizi Powell on 12/6/2012. By "basic lyrics" I mean that this transcription is given without the interjections, testifying, and preaching comments that are made before & during this rendition and after the singing appeared to end but started up again.

Additions and corrections are welcome.
