Meekly in Jordan's holy stream

Author: S. F. Smith Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #481 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Meekly in Jordan's holy stream The great Redeemer bowed; Bright was the glory's sacred beam That hushed the wondering crowd. 2 Thus God descended to approve The deed that Christ had done; Thus came the emblematic Dove, And hovered o'er the Son. 3 So, blessed Spirit, come to-day To our baptismal scene: Let thoughts of earth be far away, And every mind serene. 5 This day we give to holy joy; This day to heaven belongs: Raised to new life, we will employ In melody our tongues.
