Jesus, as thou hast given command,
Thy gospel we proclaim,
And converts, gathered from each land,
Baptize unto thy name.
For sinners whom thy love doth bless,
By whom thy love is prized,
Should loyally their King confess,
And be to thee baptized.
And for all times, and every place,
Thou didst this promise give,
“He that believes the word of grace
And is baptized, shall live.”
Here, those by whom thy love is prized,
Who trust, and love, and pray,
Come in thy name to be baptized,
Oh, bless them, Lord, to day.
