Holy One, Holy One!
Glorious Immanuel!
Father of all righteous children!
O, illuminate my soul
With the grace which saves the sinner,
And adorns him with God's image mild
As His child, As His child.

As immersed, As immersed
In the water and the blood
In the grave with Christ, the Saviour
In baptism's cleansing flood,
Free from wrath with God in favor,
Dead to sin and self, which buried lies,
I arise, I arise.

Brought to life, Brought to life
With Christ Jesus, God's elect
Made awake, I now am severed
From the world, the evil sect,
From its dark deceit  forever;
From false pride, from sin and from disgrace.
Oh, what grace, Oh, what grace!

Life divine, Life divine,
Fire and Spirit giveth pow'r,
Maketh me a new creation;
Godly life is mine each hour,
Christ, my dress in this new station;
He performs His holy work alway,
Night and day, Night and day.

With delight, With delight
Thou my happy soul hast blest.
Born to everlasting glory,
I endeavor without rest
To make known the joyful story,
While my Lord and Saviour gives me breath
Until death! Until death!
