They came to seek a new beginning, The human spirit's ageless quest, Repentance, and an end of sinning, Renouncing ev'ry wrong confessed. 2 There as the Lord, baptized and praying, Rose from the stream, the sinless one, A voice was heard from heaven saying, "This is my own beloved Son." There as the Father's word was spoken, Not in the pow'r of wind and flame, But of his love and peace the token, Seen as a dove, the Spirit came. 3 O Son of Man, our nature sharing, In whose obedience all are blest, Savior, our sins and sorrows bearing, Hear us and grant us this request: Daily to grow, by grace defended, Filled with the Spirit from above; In Christ baptized, beloved, befriended, Children of God in peace and love.
