Here at the Water's Brink We Stand

Verse 1

Here at the water's brink we stand, to do the Master's will, to be baptized by his command, and thus the word fulfill.

Verse 2

Dear God, accept our humble prayer, and all our sins forgive, as Jesus was the sinner's friend, and died that we might live.

Verse 3

We lay our sinful bodies down beneath the op'ning wave, and rise to life divinely new as from the bursting grave.
