Baptism
Down at the riverside
Emersed in water,
Emersed in Christ,
Emersed in His sufferings.
Wonderful mystery
of salvation.
Holy religion
for all the ages,
all the ages to come
without end.
Emersed in water,
Emersed in Christ,
Emersed in His sufferings.
Wonderful mystery
of salvation.
Holy religion
for all the ages,
all the ages to come
without end.
Amen.
