Out of the grave of baptism,
Comes a great baptismal feature;
A gift from God will await you,
When you emerge a brand new creature.
His gift is the Holy Spirit,
Who is God in a another form.
He will abide inside you,
To help you know right from wrong.
Christ paid the price, now you’re ransomed,
From bondage to sin and its pain;
Peace that passes understanding,
Is another feature you gain.
Since you’ve been created anew,
In heaven you have a new name.
Your new birth has brought you new life;
Praise God, you are not the same.
Your new heart will sing a new song;
New thoughts will fill your mind.
A new love for life, a new attitude,
New hope in the Lord you will find.
These gifts are available to everyone,
Baptized to become a new creature,
Whose life is truly transformed by God;
Praise God for His new creature features.
