Lyrics
-
1. Jesus, mighty King in Zion,Thou alone our guide shalt be.Thy commission we rely on;We will follow none but thee.
-
2. As an emblem of thy passionAnd thy vict'ry o'er the grave,We, who know thy great salvation,Are baptized beneath the wave.
-
3. Fearless of the world's despising,We the ancient path pursue,Buried with the Lord and risingTo a life divinely new.
