To Jordan came our Lord, the Christ
Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #220 (1880) Topics: The Catechism Holy Baptism Lyrics: 1 To Jordan came our Lord, the Christ,
To do God’s pleasure willing,
And there was by St. 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 it His pleasure;
Not simple water, but the Word
And Spirit without measure;
He is the real 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 His own throne
In dove-like form descendeth;
That thus the truth be not denied,--
Nor should our faith e’er waver,--
That the Three Persons e'er 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,
Is safe from condemnation,
And 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 birth-sin brings all to naught,
And maketh sure his ruin;
Himself he cannot succor.
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.

The strong name of the Trinity
By invocation of the same,
The Three in One and One in Three.
2 I bind this day to me forever,
By pow'r of faith, Christ’s incarnation,
His baptism in the Jordan River,
His cross of death for my salvation,
His bursting from the spiced tomb,
His riding up the heav'nly way,
His coming at the day of doom,
I bind unto myself today.
3 I bind unto myself today
The virtues of the starlit heaven,
The glorious sun’s life-giving ray,
The whiteness of the moon at even,
The flashing of the lightning free,
The whirling wind’s tempestuous shocks,
The stable earth, the deep salt sea,
Around the old eternal rocks.
4 I bind unto myself today
The pow'r of God to hold and lead,
His eye to watch, his might to stay,
His ear to hearken to my need,
The wisdom of my God to teach,
His hand to guide, his shield to ward,
The Word of God to give me speech,
His heav'nly host to be my guard.
5 I bind unto myself the name,
The strong name of the Trinity
By invocation of the same,
The Three in One and One in Three,
Of whom all nature has creation,
Eternal Father, Spirit, Word.
Praise to the Lord of my salvation;
Salvation is of Christ the Lord!

With Christ we share a mystic grave
Author: J. M. Neale, 1818-66 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #317 (1986) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Sacraments and Other Rites Holy Baptism Lyrics: 1 With Christ we share a mystic grave,
With Christ we buried lie;
But not within the darksome cave
By mournful Calvary.
2 The pure and bright baptismal flood
Entombs our nature’s stain:
New creatures from the cleansing wave
With Christ we rise again.
3 Thrice blest, if through this world of sin,
And lust and selfish care,
Our resurrection robe of white
And undefiled we wear.
4 Thrice blest, if through the gates of death,
Glorious at last and free,
We to our joyful rising pass,
O risen Lord with thee.
5 And now to thy thrice holy Name,
The God whom we adore,
To Father, Son, and Spirit blest,
Be glory evermore. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ST STEPHEN
