A Selection of Psalms and Hymns #CLXXIII
1 See how the willing converts trace,
The path their great Redeemer trod;
And follow thro' his liquid grave,
The meek, the lowly Son of God!
2 Here they renounce their former deeds,
And to a heav'nly life aspire;
Their rags for glorious robes exchang'd
They shine in clean and bright attire!
3 O sacred rite, by thee the name
Of Jesus we to own begin:
This is our resurrection pledge,
Pledge of the pardon of our sin.
4 Glory to God on high be given,
Who shews his grace to sinful men;
Let saints on earth, and host in heaven,
In concert join their loud Amen.
