Representative lyrics

English (Original Language)

1. Jesus came to John the Baptist, In Judea long ago, And was baptized by immersion In the River Jordan’s flow.

2. “To fulfill the law,” said Jesus, When the Baptist questioned why, “And to enter with my Father In the kingdom up on high.”

3. Now we know that we must also Witness faith in Jesus’ word, Be baptized to show obedience, As was Jesus Christ, our Lord.
