His human body without sin
Is splashed in Jordan, makes Him wet,
To cleanse all water once again–
By Spirit used to new beget.
When we’re baptized, with Him we’re born
With water now by Him made new
As He from us our sin has shorn–
Creation straightened, once askew.
Now all the water of the earth
Will all creation and us cleanse;
In Him creation knows new birth
As He for all now makes amends.
Each rain reminds us of His gift
Of water to our life sustain,
As life made new which He will lift
With Him to heaven to remain.
FEAST OF THE BAPTISM OF THE LORD
PROCLAIMING TRUTH!
