Hymn 616 DOWN TO THE SACRED WAVE Lyrics

1. Down to the sacred wave
The Lord of life was led;
And He who came our souls to save,
In Jordan bowed His head.

2. With willing hearts we tread
The path the Saviour trod;
We live th’example of our Head,
The glorious Lamb of God.

3. On Thee, on Thee alone
Our hope and faith rely,
O Thou, who didst for sin atone,
Who didst for sinners die.

4. We trust thy sacrifice;
To Thy dear cross we flee;
O may we die to sin, and rise
To life and bliss in Thee.
