- 1Humble souls, who seek salvation,
- Thro' the Lamb's redeeming blood,
- Hear the voice of Revelation,
- Tread the path that Jesus, trod.
- Flee to him your only Savior,
- In his mighty name confide;
- In the whole of your behavior,
- Own him as your sovereign guide.
- 2Hear the bless'd Redeemer call you,
- Listen to his gracious voice;
- Dread no ills that can befall you,
- While you make his ways your choice:
- Jesus says "Let each believer
- "Be baptized in my name;"
- He himself in Jordan's river,
- Was immers'd beneath the stream.
- 3Plainly here his footsteps tracing,
- Follow him without delay;
- Gladly his command embracing,
- Lo! your captain leads the way:
- View the rite with understanding;
- Jesus' grave before you lies;
- Be inter'd at his commanding,
- After his example rise.
