A covenant with Abraham and all believers the same--A hymn for baptism
Hymnal: The Hartford Selection of Hymns from the Most Approved Authors #CCCXXV (1799) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Baptism First Line: When God the Patriarch Abr'am call'd Lyrics: 1 When God the Patriarch Abr'am call'd,
And chose him for his own;
"Abr'am, he said, behold thy God,
And own thyself my son.
2 "A gracious cov'nant now i make,
To give thee Canaan's rest:
From thee shall come a glorious seed,
To make the nations blest.
3 "This promise is to thee reveal'd
To raise thy hope and love;
By faith behold thy future son
Descending from above.
4 "Hear my command, nor dare transgress,
But own my right divine:
'Tis circumcision I ordain
To mark thy sons as mine.
5 "By this make known and seal thy faith,
Thy children give to God;
And learn the meaning of the rite,
Which points to purer blood."
6 Lord! may we come with Abr'am's faith,
To thee our infants give;
Accept our babes, impart the grace
Which makes young sinners live.
7 Thy cov'nant ever stands the same,
Seal'd by a rite that's new
Baptiz'd and mark'd, O Lord, as thine,
Now form their hearts anew.

A Practical Improvement of Baptism
Hymnal: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns #CCCXXXVII (1791) Topics: Baptism First Line: Ye Children of your God attend Lyrics: 1 Ye Children of your God attend;
Ye Heirs of Glory hear;
For Accents, so divine as these,
Might charm the dullest Ear.
2 Baptiz'd into your Saviour's Death,
Your Souls to Sin must die;
With CHRIST your LORD, ye live anew,
With CHRIST ascend on High.
3 There by his Father's Side he sits,
Entrhon'd divinely fair;
Yet owns himself your Brother still,
And your Forerunner there.
4 Rise from these earthly Trifles, rise
On Wings of Faith and Love;
Above' your choicest treasure lies,
And be your hearts above.
5 But Earth and Sin will drag us down,
When we attempt to fly;
LORD, send thy strong attractive Pow'r
To raise and fix us High.

That we are bury'd with the LORD;

Rais'd from Corruption, Guilt, and Death;
So from the Grave did CHRIST arise,
And lives to GOD above the skies.

Over our Mortal Flesh again;
The various Lusts we serv'd before.
Shall have Dominion now no more. Languages: English

And taste a Saviour's love;
They stand within my kingdom here,
And shall in heav'n above.

Made to my church below,
I ne'er forgot, I still include
Their infant offspring too."

And give our babes to God,
By faith apply the gospel seal
Which points to Jesu's blood.

With humble hope inspir'd;
That he will take them in his arms,
And give the grace requir'd. Languages: English

Circumcision and baptism
Hymnal: The Hartford Selection of Hymns #CCCXXVII (1802) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Baptism First Line: Once did the sons of Abr'am pass Lyrics: 1 Once did the sons of Abr'am pass
Under the bloody seal of grace;
The young disciples bore the yoke,
Till Christ the painful bondage broke.
2 By milder ways doth Jesus prove
His Father's cov'nant and his love;
He seals to saints his glorious grace,
And not forbids their infant race.
3 Their seed are sprinkled with his blood,
Their children set apart for God;
His Spirit on their offspring shed,
Like water pour'd upon the head.
4 Let ev'ry saint with cheerful voice
In this large covenant rejoice;
Young children, in their early days,
Shall give the God of Abr'am praise.
