Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America ‎#259

259. He that believes and is baptized

1 He who believes and is baptized
Shall see the Lord's salvation;
Baptized into the death of Christ,
He is a new creation;
Through Christ's redemption he shall stand
Among the glorious heavenly band
Of every tribe and nation. A-men.

2 With one accord, O God, we pray;
Grant us thy Holy Spirit;
Look thou on our infirmity
Through Jesus' Blood and merit;
Grant us to grow in grace each day
By holy baptism, that we may
Eternal life inherit.

Amen.
