[Baptized into our Saviour's death]
“Baptized into his death.”—Rom. vi. 3.
Baptized into our Saviour's death,
Who for our sins gave up His breath;
Lord! grant us grace from day to day,
Our baser tendencies to slay.
Entombed with Him, our risen Head,
May we to sin and sense be dead;
And, passing through death's gate, the grave,
Our joyful resurrection have;
230
And rose upon the appointed day,—
Thy Blessed Son, our glorious Lord;
For ever be His name adored.
