Baptism of Obedience

Stop and reflect and remember
Reflecting purposefully
His joy is for those who fear Him
Proclaim this jubilantly

The theme of hope is in our hearts
Eternal expectation
He is our treasure and our greatest good
Grace abounding in salvation

Light is shining
Rain is falling
We are finding
Our sure calling
To carry the light
To speak the truth
And His Holy name proclaim
Go and teach them
Dispel the doubt
Go and reach them
We are sent out
The Baptism of obedience in God’s Holy name

Sending then rending then raising
Wondrous mystery we are praising
Change the fallow ground to hallowed ground
By your conquering presence we are found

Light is shining
Rain is falling
We are finding
Our sure calling
To carry the light
To speak the truth
And His Holy name proclaim
Go and teach them
Dispel the doubt
Go and reach them
We are sent out
The Baptism of obedience in God’s Holy names
