It was the Gulf of Mexico
My father waded in
I took his hand and found
My place beside him
I'd seen it done a hundred times
Now the water called my name
I knew that once I left this shore
I'd never be the same
The air still had a winter chill
The water wasn't clear
But the warmth of what I'd feel
Was greater then my fear
I was about to take the step
And bury all my sin
A sign to all the world
A change so deep within
I'm born again
I'm a brand new man
I've got a brand new hope
I've got a brand new life
I'm born again
I'm a brand new man
It's not about what I was
It's about what I am
I'm born again
Guilt can haunt me day or night
Stir within my soul
Echoes of a man that I no longer know
But God cannot recall
The things I can't forget
They're as far away
As east is to the west
I'm born again
I'm a brand new man
I've got a brand new hope
I've got a brand new life
I'm born again
I'm a brand new man
It's not about what I was
It's about what I am
I'm born again
Yeah, yeah, yeah
There are no words to explain
There is no doubt
That my heart has been changed
Like a blind man who finally sees
Like a slave who is finally free
I'm born again
I'm a brand new man
I've got a brand new hope
I've got a brand new life
I'm born again
I'm a brand new man
It's not about what I was
It's about what I am
I'm born again
I'm a brand new man
I've got a brand new hope
I've got a brand new life
I'm born again
I'm a brand new man
It's not about what I was
It's about what I am
I'm born again
