Mark How the Lamb of God's Self-Offering
Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr. Hymnal: The New Century Hymnal #167 (1995) Meter: 9.8.9.8 D Topics: Baptism of Jesus; Year A Baptism of Jesus; Year B Baptism of Jesus; Year C Baptism of Jesus Lyrics: 1 Mark how the Lamb of God’s self-offering
our human sinfulness takes on
In the birth-waters of the Jordan
as Jesus is baptized by John.
Hear how the voice from heaven thunders,
“Lo, this is my beloved Son.”
See how in dove-like form the Spirit
descends on God’s Anointed One.
2 From this assurance of God’s favor
Jesus goes to the wilderness,
There to endure a time of testing
that readied him to teach and bless.
So we, by water and the Spirit
baptized into Christ’s ministry,
Are often led to paths of service
through mazes of adversity.
3 Grant us, O God, the strength and courage
to live the faith our lips declare;
Bless us in our baptismal calling;
Christ’s royal priesthood help us share.
Turn us from every false allegiance,
that we may trust in Christ alone:
Raise up in us a chosen people
transformed by love to be your own. Scripture: Matthew 4:1-2 Languages: English Tune Title: RENDEZ À DIEU

palsied limbs and fainting soul;
manifest in valiant fight,
quelling all the devil's might;

mirrored in your holy Word;

When Jesus Was Baptized by John
Author: Mary Nelson Keithahn Hymnal: Faith That Lets Us Sing #88 (2017) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: Baptism Baptism of Jesus Lyrics: 1 When Jesus was baptized by John,
the sky was torn apart.
The Spirit, like a dove, came down
and fell upon his heart.
As he rose from that desert spring,
a voice from heaven cried:
“You are my Son, beloved one,
my chosen one, my pride.”
2 Thus Jesus heard his call from God
and, gifted with God’s grace,
began to spread the light of love
in every darkened place.
He healed the sick, the blind, and lame;
the broken, contrite heart.
He called for justice for the poor
and all those set apart.
3 Like Jesus, we have been baptized,
accepted as God’s own,
and in that holy sacrament
our mission was made known.
The Risen Christ lives on in us,
his body here on earth,
and we are instruments of grace
to give God’s love new birth.
4 Each time we gather at the font,
remember who we are:
a people charged to love and serve
our neighbors near and far;
a people called to be a friend
to all who are in need,
and show that love is just and fair
in every word and deed.

“Come unto me and rest;
lay down, O weary one, lay down
your head upon my breast.”
I came to Jesus as I was,
so weary, worn, and sad;
I found in him a resting place,
and he has made me glad.
2 I heard the voice of Jesus say,
“Behold, I freely give
the living water, thirsty one;
stoop down and drink and live.”
I came to Jesus, and I drank
of that life-giving stream;
my thirst was quenched, my soul revived,
and now I live in him.
3 I heard the voice of Jesus say,
“I am this dark world’s light;
look unto me, your morn shall rise,
and all your day be bright.”
I looked to Jesus, and I found
in him my star, my sun;
and in that light of life I’ll walk

Spirit of God, Descend upon My Heart
Author: George Croly Hymnal: Voices United #378 (1996) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Topics: Baptism of Jesus Year A; Baptism of Jesus Year C Lyrics: 1 Spirit of God, descend upon my heart;
wean it from earth, through all its pulses move;
stoop to my weakness, strength to me impart,
and make me love you as I ought to love.
2 I ask no dream, no prophet ecstasies,
no sudden rending of the veil of clay,
no angel visitant, no opening skies,
but take the dimness of my soul away.
3 Hast you not bid me love you, God and King;
all, all your own, soul, heart and strength and mind?
I see your cross: there teach my heart to cling.
O let me seek you and O let me find!
4 Teach me to love you as your angels love,
one holy passion filling all my frame,
the baptism of the heaven-descended dove,
my heart an altar and your love the flame. Tune Title: MORECAMBE

When Jesus came to Jordan
Author: F. Pratt Green, 1903-2000 Hymnal: Common Praise #93 (2000) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Topics: Baptism of Jesus Lyrics: 1 When Jesus came to Jordan
to be baptized by John,
he did not come for pardon,
but as his Father's Son.
He came to share repentance
with all who mourn their sins,
to speak the vital sentence
with which good news begins.
2 He came to share temptation,
our utmost woe and loss;
for us and our salvation
to die upon the cross.
So when the Dove descended
on him, the Son of Man,
the hidden years had ended,
the age of grace began.
3 Come, Holy Spirit, aid us
to keep the vows we make,
this very day invade us,
and every bondage break.
Come, give our lives direction,
the gift we covet most:
to share the resurrection
that leads to Pentecost.

We here embrace God's mighty grace
In this baptismal wave,
Nor shall the world our trust efface--
For "Baptism now doth save."

Concealed the font within,
Mere water seems the mystery
That cleases us from sin;
But everlasting gifts now dwell
Through God's Word in this flood;
Faith speaks, though reason may rebel:

scourged, mocked, in purple robe arrayed,
he bore the shameful cross and death,
for us gave up his dying breath.

for us he went on high to reign;
for us he sent his Spirit here
to guide, to comfort, and to cheer.

fills all the world today.
Of Jesus' birth and peace on earth
the angels sing alway.
2 O sing a song of Nazareth,

O sing of fragrant flowers' breath,
and of the sinless boy.
For now the flowers of Nazareth
in every heart may grow.
Now spreads the fame of his dear name
on all the winds that blow.
3 O sing a song of Galilee,
of lake and woods and hill,
of him who walked upon the sea
and bade its waves be still.
For though, like waves on Galilee,
dark seas of trouble roll,
when faith has heard the Master's word,
falls peace upon the soul.
4 O sing a song of Calvary,
its glory and dismay,
of him who hung upon the tree,
and took our sins away.
For he who died on Calvary
is risen from the grave,
and Christ, our Lord, by heaven adored,
is mighty now to save.

rejected and despised?

you have bought us: we are yours.

be the guardian of our way.
Keep your flock: from sin defend us;
seek us when we go astray.
Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus,
hear your children when we pray.

poor and sinful though we be;
you have mercy to relieve us,
grace to cleanse, and power to free.
Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus,
early let us turn to you.
Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus,
early let us turn to you.

Jesus! the name high over all
Author: C. Wesley (1707-1788 ) Hymnal: Hymns for Today's Church (2nd ed.) #213 (1987) Topics: Epiphany 1, Revelation The Baptism of Jesus Lyrics: 1 Jesus! the name high over all
in hell or earth or sky;
angels again before it fall
and devils fear and fly,
and devils fear and fly.
2 Jesus! the name to sinners dear,
the name to sinners given;
it scatters all their guilty fear,
it turns their hell to heaven,
it turns their hell to heaven.
3 Jesus the prisoner's fetters breaks
and bruises Satan's head;
power into strengthless souls he speaks
and life into the dead,
and life into the dead.
4 O that the world might taste and see
the riches of his grace!
The arms of love that welcome me
would all mankind embrace,
would all mankind embrace.
5 His righteousness alone I show,
his saving grace proclaim;
this is my work on earth below,
to cry 'Behold the Lamb!'
to cry 'Behold the Lamb!'
6 Happy if with my final breath
I may but gasp his name,
preach him to all, and cry in death,
'Christ Jesus is the Lamb!'
'Christ Jesus is the Lamb!'
Scripture: John 1:29 Languages: English Tune Title: LYDIA
Jesus! the name high over all
