33.  Buried With Christ

1
Come, Jesus, Master, Sun divine!
On these baptismal waters shine.
Thy light, thy love, thy life impart,
And fill each consecrated heart.

2
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!

3
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.

4
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.
