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.
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.
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.
