BAPTISMAL SELECTIONS.

ALL power is given unto me in | heaven.. and in | earth; Go ye, therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son.. and | Ho..ly | Ghost.

S Repent, and be baptized, every | one..

of you,

In the name of Christ, for the.. re- | mission.. of | sins.
He that believeth and is baptized, shall be saved;
and now why | tarri..est | thou?
Arise, and be baptized,

and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord; for thus it becometh us. to ful- | fil.. all righteousness.

They who gladly received the word | were.. bap- | tized; And they of Jerusalem

were baptized in the

river | Jordan.. con- | fessing.. their sins.

Buried with Christ by baptism into death,

they rise in the likeness of his | res.. ur- | rection,

To walk in newness of life,

and go.. on their | way.. re- | joicing.

For as many as have been baptized into Christ, — have put..on | Christ.

Therefore glorify God in your body,

mandments.

and in your spirit,.. which | are = | God's. Blessed are they that I do.. his comGreat peace have they who love thy law, and nothing shall.. of- | fend = [them.

SGo ye, therefore, and teach all nations to observe all things, whatsoever I have com- | mand..ed | you. And lo! I am with you always,

even | unto.. the end.. of the | world.

1 WITH willing hearts we tread
The path the | Sa..viour | trod;
We love th' example of our Head,
The glo..rious | Lamb.. of God.
[See Hymn 798.]

BAPTISMAL SELECTIONS.

JESUS cometh from Galilee to Jordan,unto John, to be.. bap- | tized.. of | him.

And Jesus, when he was baptized,

went up straight.. way | out.. of the water.

See, here is water; - what doth

hinder | me..to | be..bap- | tized?

If thou believest with | all..thy | heart,.. thou mayest.
Can any man forbid water,

that these.. should not be.. bap- | tized,

Which have received the Holy Ghost.. as well..as | we?
When they belieyed the things concerning the kingdom
of God, and the name..of | Je..sus Christ,
They were bap- | tized,.. both | men.. and 'women.

HYMN. C. M.

1 WHILE in this sacred rite of thine,
We | yield..our | spir.. its now,
Shine o'er the waters, Dove divine,
And seal.. the | cheer..ful | vow.
2 All glory be to Him whose life

For ours.. was free..ly given,
Who aids us in the Spirit's strife,
And makes..us | meet.. for | heaven.
3 0, may we die to earth and sin,
Be-neath..the | mys..tic flood;
And when we rise, may we begin
To live.. a- | new.. for | God.

HYMN. L. M.

1 OUR Saviour bowed beneath the wave,
And meekly sought..a | wa.. t'ry | grave:
Come, see the sacred path he trod -
A path well pleas.. ing | to.. our | God.
2 Hosanna to the Lamb divine!

Let endless glo.. ries | round.. him | shine;
High o'er the heavens forever reign,

O Lamb of God,.. for | sin..ners | slain.
