Rising from the water baptized – v3



Rising from the water baptized
washed clean, as we are, clean of sin
Praying to Almighty God
being baptized again

The Spirit falling from heaven
from a rip in the sky
A voice anointing the Promised One
come to give us Light

Rising from the water baptized
touched by God’s Spirit
Called the Son of God
by the voice of Heaven

The Spirit leading him
out of the Jordan
into the wilderness, ministry
to go and save the world
