Baptism. Luke 12. 50; Acts 10. 47; Rom. 6. 4, 8;

1 Mighty King, thy power display,
  Give us grace to watch and pray;
  Strengthened by thy Spirit’s might,
  May we in thy ways delight.

2 For us Jesus was baptized
  In tremendous agonies;
  Mighty vengeance, like a flood,
  Overwhelmed the Lamb of God.

3 Come, ye saints, with wonder view
  What the Lord has done for you;
  View the mighty waters roll,
  And break in upon his soul.

4 View the swelling floods of wrath
  Sink your Saviour low as death;
  Grief him covered like a grave,
  When he died, your souls to save.

5 Sons of God, lift up your eyes;
  See your slaughtered Saviour rise!
  He has conquered death and hell;
  With him you shall ever dwell.
