Choose ye his cross to bear,
Who bowed beneath the wave?
Clad in his armour, will ye share,
In faith, a watery grave?
We love his holy word,
His precepts we obey,
Buried with Christ, our dying Lord,
We seek to be, this day.
All hail! ye blessed band,
Shrink not to do his will,
In deep humility, this work
Of righteousness fulfill.
Tread in the Saviour’s steps,
Invoke his spirit free,
And as he burst the gates of death,
So may your rising be.
