When Jesus Came to Jordan
Author: Fred Pratt Green, 1903-2000; Lynn M. Trapp Meter: 7.6.7.6 Appears in 21 hymnals Refrain First Line: Behold the Lamb of God Lyrics: 1 When Jesus came to Jordan
To be baptized by John,
He did not come for pardon,
But as his Father's Son.
Optional Refrain:
Behold the Lamb of God,
who takes away the sins of the world.
This is God's Chosen One.
2 He came to share repentance
With all who mourn their sins,
To speak the vital sentence
With which good news begins.
3 He came to share temptation,
Our utmost woe and loss;
For us and our salvation
To die upon the cross.
4 So when the Dove descended
On him, the Son of Man,
The hidden years had ended,
The age of grace began. Topics: Nativity of John the Baptist Used With Tune: DE EERSTEN ZIJN DE LAATSTEN
