It is a very pleasant thing
To follow Christ our Lord;
And thus obey our heavenly King,
According to his word.
Down to the water-side we go,
By Christ’s example led,
Into the same we come also,
As did our glorious head.
We are baptized as Jesus was,
His easy yoke we bear;
And we are thus baptized, because
That we his subjects are.
Lord, may we to thy glory live!
Teach us thy heavenly ways;
To us thy Holy Spirit give,
And we thy name will praise.
