Water in the Plan
On the birthday of the kingdom as we read
it in the Bible in Acts 2:38
Peter told the people that they had to be forgiven before it was too late
By the birth of the Messiah they were asked to be hastened and there they
crucified
The one and only Savior they stood and watched Him die (on the cross of
Calvary)
But then their eyes were open, they started to believe in just what Peter
said
Jesus had been right so they had to make a point, you see, the Son of God
was dead
But the grave it wouldn't hold Him, 'cause the rock became a-rollin' and He
came forth from grave
The Prince of Peace that God had sent to save
Repeat Chorus
Nicodemus came to Jesus and was told it was essential that he had to be
born again
Of the water and the spirit, he submitted very quickly, there is water in
the plan
On His last, final mission, just before His great ascension He mentioned it
once more
Tellin' them to teach it and do it in all the world (how to make disciples)
Even Paul the great apostle had to write of its importance 'cause his sins
had been washed away
Though he was a-persecutin' Ananias said it to him, he was born again that
day
So if you want to put on Jesus and be in His saving body well there is no
other route
The word of God has spelled it clearly out
Though men may teach against it and provide another plan
Many roads are offered by the world
But God needs no improvement by a weak and feeble man
The Lord's way is the best I've ever heard
Repeat Chorus
I know there's water in the plan
