Lord, show all this entails!
Salvation's height cause me to see;
How much I'm saved, unveil.

"Through water saved"—to life transferred,
Now from the world let go,
Gone is the past, at last submerged
In this mysterious flow.

Gone is the past, at last submerged

"Through water saved"—from evil age
Like Noah was from his;
Now through the cross, baptism's stage,
This world no longer is.

"Through water saved"—like Israel was
From Egypt's cruel domain.
Baptism thus now rescues us
From this world's binding chain.

This freedom all transcends:
From bonds of world at last unchained,
From Satan, sorrow, sin.

"Through water saved"—I'm God's fore'er;
No more the world's am I;
Serve, worship Him—my portion dear;
To God I'm sanctified.
