Classic Poem

1. Jesus, Master, O discover Pleasure in us, now we stand
2. Make this stream, like Jordan blessèd. Leprous Naamans enter in
On this bank of Schuylkill River, To obey thy great command
Rise, saith Jesus, be baptizèd, And you wash away your sin
Pleasure in us, pleasure in us, pleasure in us, To obey thy great command.
Be baptizèd, be baptizèd, be baptizèd, And you wash away your sin.

3. Help us, thou baptizèd Jesus!
What we vowèd to fulfill.
Of our fears of failing ease us,
Form and mould us to thy will.
Help us Jesus, help us Jesus, help us Jesus,
What we vowèd to fulfill.

4. Hence we go our way rejoicing
Conscious of our pleasing God,
Following Jesus still proposing
In the paths his feet have trod.
Go rejoicing, go rejoicing, go rejoicing,
Conscious of our pleasing God.
