Lyics

REFORM, and be immers'd,

Says our redeeming Lord;

You all are now assur'd

That 'tis your Saviour's word;

Arise! arise without delay,

And his divine command obey.



You sin-convicted race,

Now fall at Jesus' feet;

He'll save you through his grace;

Come, to his will submit;

And be immers'd without delay--

O come, and wash your sins away!



Come, you believing train,

No more this truth withstand;

No longer think it vain

To honor God's command;

But haste, arise, without delay,

And come and wash your sins away.



Jesus! thou Prince of Peace!

To thy great name we pray,

May converts to thy grace

This ordinance obey;

And may thy love their souls allure,

Their peace and pardon to secure!
