Baptism. Luke 12. 50; John 15. 14
1
Jesus, we thy name adore;
 
Thine the kingdom is and power;
 
Thou shalt reign on Zion’s hill;
 
We would gladly do thy will.
2
Thou hast bought our souls with blood,
 
And hast brought us home to God.
 
We would gladly thee obey,
 
In thy own appointed way.
3
[We through grace are dead indeed,
 
And from our old husband freed,
 
But are married to the Lord,
 
And would gladly do his word.]
4
Thou didst sink in floods of wrath,
 
Us to save from guilt and death;
 
And with such a scene in view,
 
We would thy commandments do.
5
Thou hast claimed us as thy bride;
 
Keep us near thy wounded side;
 
Dead to every lord but thee,
 
We would fain obedient be.
