Hymns

Do we not know that solemn word

by Isaac Watts·1707·Meter 8.8.8.8 (LM)

Based on Rom 6:3,4,etc.; Rom 6:3-11

1

Do we not know that solemn word,
That we are buried with the Lord,
Baptized into his death, and then
Put off the body of our sin?

2

Our souls receive diviner breath,
Raised from corruption, guilt, and death;
So from the grave did Christ arise,
And lives to God above the skies.

3

No more let sin or Satan reign
Over our mortal flesh again;
The various lusts we served before
Shall have dominion now no more.
