Baptizinâ John
Where are the people? Thereâs nobody here.
The village is empty, they say.
Theyâve gathered to listen to Baptizinâ John
On the banks of the Jordan today
Chorus:
Baptizinâ John with camelâs hair on
Heâs calling repentance from sin
Paving the way on that glorious day
The Masterâs way to come in
On the banks of the Jordan lost sinners await
Baptism with water by John
Hoping and trusting it isnât too late
That their life with the Lord can go on
Chorus:
Lost souls are praying as Herodâs men ask,
âThis mad man, who is he and why?â
âI baptism with water,â says Baptizinâ John,
âFor there comes someone greater than I.â
Chorus:
John hesitated and then looked around
As Jesus came walking to him
John thought for a moment and started to balk
Jesus said, âJohn, baptize me, my friend.â
Chorus:
The Spirit descended in the form of a dove
And landed upon Jesusâ head
âThis is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased,â
The voice of the Father said.
Chorus:
