Buried with Him in Immersion

Verse 1

Buried with Him in immersion, How sacred to sink ’neath the wave; We witness a pure testimony, When low’red in the symbolic grave.

Chorus

I bid the world a last farewell, No more in sin I’ll ever dwell; Joined to the Lord like saints of yore, Never to part, no, nevermore.

Verse 2

Buried with Him in immersion, According to Heaven’s command To follow the Savior’s example, And thus in His favor to stand.

Verse 3

Buried with Him in immersion, To show that our conscience within Is freed from the dread condemnation Incurred in the thraldom of sin.

Verse 4

Buried with Him in immersion, To show we are washed in His blood, We’ve died to the world and its pleasures, And live to the glory of God.
