Buried beneath the yielding wave,
The dear Redeemer lies;
Faith views him in the watery grace,
And thence beholds him rise.
Thus it becomes his saints to-day,
Their ardent zeal t’express;
And in the Lord’s appointed way,
Fulfill all righteousness.
With joy we in his footsteps tread,
And would his cause maintain,
Like him be numbered with the dead,
And with him rise and reign.
His presence oft revives your hearts,
And drives our fears away;
When he commands, and strength imparts,
We cheerfully obey.
Now we, dear Jesus, would to thee
Our grateful voices raise;
Washed in the fountain of thy blood,
Our lives shall all be praise.
---Alternative verses---
Buried beneath the yielding wave
The great Redeemer lies;
Faith views him in the watery grave,
And thence beholds him rise.
Thus do his willing saints to-day,
Their ardent zeal express,
And, in the Lord’s appointed way,
Fulfill all righteousness.
