Christ laid down His life
With Him I am crucified
Destined to die
A holy exchange: His life for mine
Count the cost
The price of immersion
Fall down and pledge your allegiance!
This is the call, perennial
This is the call, to bear your cross!
Bear your cross!
Come and die!
Baptized with Christ in death
Raised up in righteousness
Creation distorted, dominion belied
This image of God who was destined to die
Has paid for redemption, the ransom for life (for life)
Bear your cross!
Come and die!
Baptized with Christ in death
Raised up in righteousness
The Kingdom of Heaven is here
Seek this and righteousness
Repent and believe and bow to the King
By the water and the Spirit, I am born again
With Christ I am crucified
I bid you come and die
