Tune: TLH # 208 Gelobt sei Gott, Melchior Vulpius, 1609
Then cometh Christ from
Galilee
To Jordan’s waters
running free
That He’d be washed for
all to see
His bath for ours
His bath for ours
His bath for ours
And his dear kinsman John
did plea
I have need to be washed
of Thee
The Lord insisted Writ
agree
His cross for ours
His cross for ours
His cross for ours
Jesus then stepped from
flowing sea
My Father is well
pleased in Me
Godhead anointing
David’s Key
His blood for ours
His blood for ours
His blood for ours
Pressed on from desert
to the tree
The sacrifice for you and
me
The Lamb of God
eternally
His tomb for ours
His tomb for ours
His tomb for ours
At blessed font on
bended knee
Feasting with Holy
Trinity
Father, Son, Spirit, One
in Three
His life is ours
His life is ours
His life is ours
