Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymn-book #179 (1893) Meter: 8.7.7 Hymnal Title: Evangelical Lutheran Hymn-book Lyrics: 1 TO Jordan came our Lord, the Christ,
To do God’s pleasure willing,
And there was by Saint John baptized,
All righteousness fulfilling;
There did He consecrate a bath
To wash away transgression,
And quench the bitterness of death
By His own blood and passion;
He would a new life give us.
2 So hear ye all, and well perceive
What God doth call Baptism,
And what a Christian should believe,
Who error shuns and schism:
That we should water use, the Lord
Declareth in His pleasure,
Not simple water, but the Word
And Spirit without measure;--
He is the true Baptizer.
3 To show us this, He hath His word
With signs and symbols given;
On Jordan’s banks was plainly heard
The Father’s voice from heaven:
"This is my well beloved Son,
In whom my soul delighteth;
Hear Him!" Yea, hear Him every one,
When He Himself inviteth;
Hear and obey His teaching!
4 In tender manhood God the Son
In Jordan's water standeth;
The Holy Ghost from heaven's throne
In dove-like form descendeth;
That thus the truth be not denied,
Nor should our faith e’er waver,
That the Three Persons all preside
At Baptism’s holy laver,
And dwell with the believer.
5 Thus Jesus His disciples sent
Go, teach ye every nation,
That, lost in sin, they must repent,
And flee from condemnation;
He that believes and is baptized
Shall thereby have salvation,
A new-born man he is in Christ,
From death free and damnation,
He shall inherit heaven.
6 Who in this mercy hath not faith,
Nor aught therein discerneth,
Is yet in sin, condemned to death
And fire that ever burneth;
His holiness avails him not,
Nor aught which he is doing;
His inborn sin brings all to naught,
And maketh sure his ruin;
Himself he cannot succor.
7 The eye of sense alone is dim,
And nothing sees but water;
Faith sees Christ Jesus, and in Him
The Lamb ordained for slaughter;
It sees the cleansing fountain, red
With the dear blood of Jesus,
Which from the sins, inherited
From fallen Adam, frees us,
And from our own misdoings. Topics: Catechism Baptism Languages: English

7 Blind sense but water sees, and spurns:
"Pray, how can water save us?"
Faith marks the Word, and well discerns
Christ's merits that here lave us;
Faith sees this cleansing fountain red
With, both from sin inherited
From fallen Adam frees us,
And sins we have committed.
