1. By the Jordan waters down, Jesus Christ, the Word,
Was proclaimed by Baptist John As the Lamb of God.
Bring us down to the font; in his death we're baptized.
Lead us up from the font: to new life in Christ we arise.
2. From the Jordan waters up, He, baptized by John,
Was, beneath the Heavenly Dove, Named Beloved Son.
Bring us down to the font; in his death we're baptized.
Lead us up from the font: to new life in Christ we arise.
3. Hear, the gentle voice of God, Lord of majesty,
Bids redemption's light to dawn, thund'ring over the sea.
Bring us down to the font; in his death we're baptized.
Lead us up from the font: to new life in Christ we arise.
4. God has burned away our guilt, that the Spirit bring
to each soul to bear His mark: prophet, priest and king.
Bring us down to the font; in his death we're baptized.
Lead us up from the font: to new life in Christ we arise.
5. Springs of water sanctified, As His glory's revealed,
Come draw waters from His font, Let creation be sealed.
Bring us down to the font; in his death we're baptized.
Lead us up from the font: to new life in Christ we arise.
Christians, to the Paschal victim offer your thankful praises!
By the lamb the sheep were redeemed:
Christ the sinless one has reconciled sinners to the Father.
Death and life have contended in that wondrous battle:
the Prince of life, who died reigns immortal.
Tell us, Mary, what did you see as you were on your way?
The tomb of Christ, who is living,
and the glory of his resurrection.
The angelic witnesses, the cloth and his garments.
Christ my hope is arisen: He goes before us to Galilee.
Truly Christ is arisen from the dead:
O King victorious, have mercy on us.
Where there is charity and love, there the God of love abides.
1. The love of Christ has gathered us as one;
rejoice in him with joy that he imparts
Let us revere and love the living God
And love each other with unfeigning hearts.
Where there is charity and love, there the God of love abides.
2. And so when we are gathered here as one,
let quarrels die and envious rancor cease.
Be our resolve all bitterness to shun
And in our midst be Christ his love and peace.
Where there is charity and love, there the God of love abides.
3. O lead us master by your saving grace
to where the blessed glory in your sight;
then let us see and love you face to face
gathered once more in everlasting light.
Where there is charity and love, there the God of love abides.
