BAPTISM
563
(S^In token that thou shalt not blush To glory in His name, We blazon here upon thy front • His glory and His shame.
£ In token that thou too shalt tread The path He travelled by,
Endure the cross, despise the shame, And sit thee down on high;
4 Thus outwardly and visibly We seal thee for His own: And may the brow that wears His cross Hereafter share His crown.
Rev. Henry Alford, 183a
564
2 The words of His extensive love From age to age endure: The Angel of the covenant proves, And seals the blessings sure.
|3 Jesus the ancient faith confirms To our great father given;
He takes young children in His arms, And calls them heirs of heaven.
4 Our God! how faithful are His ways! His love endures the same; Nor from the promise of His grace Blots out the children's name.
Rev. Isaac Watts, 1719
