Lyrics
In these waters dipped a toe, Down he went as if to drown, Rising see the dove come down. Take me down to Jordan's bank, Where the pilgrims, rank on rank, Wait expectant on the shore, Seeking life forevermore. When the dove kisse Jesus' head, Heaven opened and God said, 'Here's my Son with whom I'm pleased.' Thus we see the Trinity. Take me down to Jordan's bank, Where the pilgrims, rank on rank, Wait expectant on the shore, Seeking life forevermore. Will you follow Christ the Lord? Leave the safety of the shore? Trust the Baptist's loving hands, Wade into the promised land?
