#127BAPTISM

1
BURIED beneath the yielding wave The great Redeemer lies; Faith views him in the watery grave, And thence beholds him rise.
2
Thus do his willing saints to-day, Their ardent zeal express, And in the Lord's appointed way, Fulfill all righteousness.
3
With joy we in his footstep tread, And would his cause maintain– Like him be numbered with the dead, And with him rise and reign.
4
His presence oft revives our hearts, And drives our fears away; When he commands, and strength imparts, We cheerfully obey.
