When Jesus Christ Was Baptized

1. When Jesus Christ was baptized Down in the River Jordan, Three members of the Godhead Were present there in love. The Father spoke from heaven When Jesus Christ was baptized; The Holy Ghost descended As gently as a dove.

2. And now when I am baptized, I’ll follow his example— Be baptized by immersion Through sacred priesthood pow’r. Then I will be a member Of Heav’nly Father’s kingdom And have the Holy Spirit To guide me ev’ry hour.
