By his voice, boldly, clearly
by the awesome voice of God
Jesus of Nazareth,
rising in baptism from the Jordan
Claimed by the Father as his own
the babe no longer a child
his time of learning, of growing done
Ready to fulfill his part in the Master’s plan
coming to John in the Jordan
charting a course long ago written
the steps of the servant numbered
the lamb following the Master’s voice
Marked by the Father,
by the Spirit’s branding
forever would his life now,
be at the Master’s command
