In Connection – v2

part of the process
like Christ, into the water
a baptism into the faith
the water a means
a pathway, a doorway,
affirming the connection
with all who have gone before

into the waters with Christ
dying to the world, our old selves
up from the waters,
living, worshiping together
beloved of God
in connection with our Lord
with our God

calling the indwelling of the Spirit
changing our lives
from the inside out
washing us with God’s love
dying to ourselves
rising to do the work
to be Christ’s hands and feet
