From the Inside Out – v2


washed wholly clean
from the inside out
our lives changed forever
into the waters of baptism
connected to Christ, to the Jordan
each of us dying with him
each rising, beloved of God

changed, transformed
by the waters, by the Spirit
now living within
the indwelling of God
walking with us
on our journey
our walk of faith

guiding us on our path
all the days of our lives
changed forever
from the inside out
washed clean in the waters
new in that moment
made one with Christ
