Baptism

Verse 1

Tuned with love divine, we sing, Glory to our God and King; Matchless in his grace and power; We behold, and we adore.

Verse 2

Once in floods of wrath, the Lamb Sank, and called it baptism; Overwhelmed was he indeed, That his chosen might be freed.

Verse 3

But he conquered when he fell, And destroyed the powers of hell; He in holy triumph broke Sin and death’s tremendous yoke.

Verse 4

One with Christ, our living Head, We were each considered dead; With him, too, we rose again, And with him must ever reign.

Verse 5

Now with pleasure we attend To his wise and just command, And by faith therein we view What the Lord for us went through.
