Down by the Jordan

Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Meter: 14.14.4.7.8 Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: John 1:6-8 First Line: Down by the Jordan, a prophet named John was baptizing Lyrics: Down by the Jordan, a prophet named John was baptizing, Preaching a message the people found bold and surprising: "God will forgive! Show that you'll change how you live! Surely God's new day is rising!" There by the river, the crowd came with great expectation: "Are you God's Chosen One, sent here to rescue our nation?" "No!" John replied. "He who is mightier than I Judges and offers salvation." Jesus, you went to be baptized with all of the others, Taking your place among sinners, God's lost sons and daughters. Then with great love, God's Spirit came as a dove! Your work began in those waters. Here in the Church, we are baptized and filled with God's Spirit. Freed and forgiven, we're welcomed with joy! Can you hear it? This is God's sign! This is how God says, "You're mine!" Let's take the good news and share it! Topics: Baptism; Church Year; Jesus Christ Ministry Used With Tune: LOBE DEN HERREN

Faber, 1814-1863 Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 917 hymnals Scripture: John 1:9 Lyrics: 1 There’s a wideness in God’s mercy like the wideness of the sea; there’s a kindness in his justice which is more than liberty. 2 There is welcome for the sinner and more graces for the good; there is mercy with the Savior; there is healing in his blood. 3 For the love of God is broader than the measure of our mind; and the heart of the Eternal is most wonderfully kind. 4 If our love were but more simple, we would take him at his word, and our lives would be illumined by the presence of our Lord.
