O God, Your Justice Towers
When Jesus Came to Jordan
Author: Fred Pratt Green Hymnal: Celebrating Grace Hymnal #152 (2010) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Scripture: Matthew 3:13-17 Lyrics: 1 When Jesus came to Jordan
to be baptized by John,
He did not come for pardon,
but as the sinless one.
He came to share repentance
with all who mourn their sins,
to speak the vital sentence
with which good news begins.
2 He came to share temptation,
our utmost woe and loss,
for us and our salvation
to die upon the cross.
So when the dove descended
on Him, the Son of Man,
the hidden years had ended,
the age of grace begun.
3 Come, Holy Spirit,
aid us to keep the vows we make;
this very day invade us,
and every bondage break.
Come, give our lives direction,
the gift we covet most:
to share the resurrection
that leads to Pentecost.

When Jesus Came to Jordan
What Was Your Vow and Vision
Author: Brian Wren Hymnal: Chalice Hymnal #177 (1995) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Scripture: Matthew 3:13-17 Lyrics: 1 What was your vow and vision,
revealed and recognized,
Christ, when you came to Jordan
and asked to be baptized?
Was there a sudden splendor
of prophets, priests and kings,
a wind that stirred the waters,
a blur of mighty wings?
2 Was this God's call, the crowning
of all you had become:
"Go, show and tell my coming,
my own, my chosen one?"
Did scripture join with scripture,
revealing in surprise
the triumph of a servant
rejected and despised?
3 We meet you at the water
and ponder why and how,
in hope that we may follow
where God is going now,
anointed by your Spirit,
reborn, and energized,
through deed and word proclaiming:
"In Christ we are baptized!"

Cuando al Jordán fue Cristo
Author: Fred Pratt Green; Alberto Merubia Hymnal: El Himnario Presbiteriano #117 (1999) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Scripture: Luke 3:21-22 Lyrics: 1 Cuando al Jordán fue Cristo
y Juan le bautizó,
no fue perdón pidiendo,
pues Él jamás pecó.
Con los arrepentidos
se identificó;
Y trajo buenas nuevas;
el reino se inició.
2 Él vino a ser tentado,
que es nUestra condición;
sobre una cruz clavado
nos trajo salvación.
Y cuando la paloma
del cielo descendió,
ocultos años cesan,
la gracia comenzó.
3 Los votos que te hacemos
ayúdanos cumplir.
Los yugos que tenemos,
ven Tú a destruir.
¡Desciende y danos vida,
que nuestro anhelo es,
tras la Resurrección,
gozar Pentecostés! Topics: Bautismo de Jesús; Bautismo de Jesús Languages: Spanish Tune Title: COMPLAINER
