'Tis God the Father we adore
In this baptismal sign;
'Tis he whose voice on Jordan's shore
Proclaim'd the Son divine.
The Father own'd him; let our breath
In answ'ring praise ascend,
As in the image of his death
We own our heav'nly Friend.
We seek the consecrated grave
Along the path he trod:
Receive us in the hallow'd wave,
Thou holy Son of God.
Let earth and heav'n our zeal record,
And future witness bear,
That we to Zion's mighty Lord
Our full allegiance swear.
O that our conscious souls may own,
With joy's serene survey,
Inscrib'd upon his judgment throne,
The transcript of this day.
