Buried With Christ

Come, Jesus, Master, Sun divine! On these baptismal waters shine. Thy light, thy love, thy life impart, And fill each consecrated heart.

We love thy name, we love thy laws, And joyfully embrace thy cause; We' ll bear the cross, the shame, the pain, O Lamb of God, for us once slain!

We sink beneath the mystic wave, Nor would we seek our life to save; We yield our will to thine own mould, Nor would we seek our own to hold.

And as we rise for thee to live, O let the Holy Spirit give The sealing unction from above, The breath of life, the fire of love.
