[Intro - Slow, quiet, mysterious strings, pizzicato] [Verse 1 - What is Baptism? Quiet, reverent] What is Baptism? Baptism is not just plain water But it is the water Included in God's command And combined with God's word [Verse 2 - The Word, strings building] Which is that word of God? Christ our Lord says in the last chapter of Matthew Therefore go and make disciples of all nations Baptizing them in the name of the Father And of the Son and of the Holy Spirit [Chorus - Building intensity, choir entering] What benefits does Baptism give? It works forgiveness of sins Rescues from death and the devil And gives eternal salvation To all who believe this [Verse 3 - The promise, faster tempo, more voices] As the words and promises of God declare Which are these words and promises of God? Christ our Lord says in the last chapter of Mark Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved But whoever does not believe will be condemned [Bridge - Full orchestra, building to climax] Forgiveness of sins Rescues from death and the devil Eternal salvation [Final Chorus - EXPLOSIVE, full orchestra and choir, thunderous] It works forgiveness of sins Rescues from death and the devil And gives eternal salvation To all who believe this [Outro - Orchestra crashing to a triumphant final chord]
