Praise and thanksgiving be to God our maker,
source of all blessings, prodigal creator.
Baptized and made your own, now we come before you,
and we adore you.
Not our own holiness, nor that we have striven
brings us the peace which you, O Christ, have given.
Baptized and set apart, strengthen us, O Savior,
with grace and favor.
Come, Holy Spirit, come in visitation;
you are the truth, our hope, and our salvatio.
Baptize with joy and pow'r, give, O Dove descending,
life never ending.
Praise to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit
one Lord, one faith, one source of ev'ry merit.
Here now renew your church through this symbol given;
grand peace from heaven.
