1 Down beside the crystal waters,
Led by Jesus, Lamb of God,
Gather now the saints to follow
Meekly in the path he trod.
Refrain:
Down in the waters’ depth,
Sinking ‘neath the crystal waves,
Buried with the Crucified,
Witness that Jesus Saves.
2 Sweet indeed are hymns of praises,
Sweeter still to please the Lord;
And our hearts with love are glowing
As we here obey his word. [Refrain]
3 We have died the death to evil,
To its follies bade adieu;
Now we’re buried with our Savior,
Raised to walk with him anew. [Refrain]
4 One in life and death with Jesus,
Let us of thy grace partake;
Help us keep our vows unbroken,
Till we in thy likeness wake. [Refrain]
