83ss. Jesus, 'ere thou didst seek the skies

1 Jesus, 'ere thou didst seek the skies,
When from the grave set free,
Thou did'st command us to baptize
Disciples into thee.

2 Lord, we, thy willing servants, are
Assembled here to-day,
Baptized in water to declare
We thy commands obey.

3 Now as we humbly seek thy face,
May we thy goodness prove;
Unite us in thy heavenly grace,
And in the joy of love.
