O heavenly Dove, Descend from on high! We plead Thy rich blessing; In mercy draw nigh. We humbly beseech Thee, Lord Jesus, we pray, With love and the Spirit baptize us today.

O list the glad voice! From heaven it came: Thou art My beloved, Well pleased I am. We praise Thee, we bless Thee, dear Lamb that was slain We laud and adore Thee, Amen and Amen.
