Obedience
Christ’s
perfect obedience
Showing
the way
The
Baptist lifted
One
without sin
From
a watery grave
The
Father’s voice proclaimed
His
only Begotten
And dove descended
As
witness to
Their
perfect union
All
three of one purpose
One
heart and mind
To
bring to pass
Man’s
immortality
And
offer eternal life
Receiving
baptismal washing
Of
both body and soul
A
disciple follows and partakes
Of
Christ’s gift
Repentant
and faithful
Symbolic
priesthood arm
Is
raised and
Heaven’s
note taken
Signaling
covenant made
And
sins forsaken
Uniting with Holy Godhead
To
become one
Pure
in thought and deed
Life’s
eternal journey
Just
begun
