Rejoice, all children of the faith, join in the praise above to God, who long ago began a gracious act of love. Optional Refrain: O pour over me the water as a sign that God lives in me, the world I do resign. The gospel message of our Christ has come and made its home; the open and repentant heart has to the Lord said, "Come." The miracle of newborn faith enlivens young and old; an affirmation of our hope, the story once more told. Now go, you baptized of the faith, throughout the whole wide earth, and make disciples who live the message of rebirth.
