[Verse 2]
Sin disturb my soul no longer
I am baptized into Christ
I have comfort even stronger
Jesus’ cleansing sacrifice
Should a guilty conscience seize me
Since my baptizm did release me
In a dear forgiving flood
Sprinkling me with Jesus’ blood
[Verse 3]
Satan hear this proclamation
I am baptized into Christ
Drop your ugly accusation
I am not so soon enticed
Now that to the front I’ve traveled
All your might has come unraveled
And against your tyranny
God my Lord unites with me
[Verse 4]
Death you cannot end my gladness
I am baptized into Christ
When I die I leave all sadness
To inherit paradise
Though I lie in dust and ashes
Faiths assurance brightly flashes
Baptism has the strength Devine
To make life immortal mine
[Verse 5]
There is nothing worth comparing
To this lifelong comfort sure
Open-eyed my grave is staring
Even there I’ll sleep secure
Though my flesh awaits its raising
Still my soul continues praising
I am baptized into Christ
I’m a child of Paradise
