Hymns Supplied Through the Gracious Generosity
of the Cyber Hymnal Website
Words: Mary Bowly Peters, Hymns Intended to Help the Communion of Saints (London: Nisbet & Co., 1847). These words were written as a baptismal hymn.
Music: "Serenity," adapted by Uzziah Christopher Burnap, 1856, from "Waft, Ye Winds," by William Vincent Wallace, 1836
O Lord, while we confess the worth
Of this the outward seal,
Do Thou the truths herein set forth
To every heart reveal.
Death to the world we here avow,
Death to each fleshly lust;
Newness of life our calling now,
A risen Lord our trust.
And we, O Lord, who now partake
Of resurrection life,
With every sin, for Thy dear sake,
Would be at constant strife.
Baptized into the Father's Name,
We'd walk as sons of God;
Baptized in Thine, we own Thy claim
As ransomed by Thy blood.
Baptized into the Holy Ghost,
We'd keep His temple pure,
And make Thy grace our only boast,
And by Thy strength endure.
