Lyrics
Peter:
Repent, and be baptised every one of you,
in the Name of Jesus Christ, for to you is the promise,
and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call unto Him.
The People:
In the Name of Jesus Christ, for to us is the promise,
and to our children and to all that are far off,
even as many as the Lord our God shall call unto Him.
Pour upon us the Spirit of grace.
Peter:
In the Name of Jesus Christ.
The People:
Pour upon us the Spirit of grace.
All:
There shall be a fountain opened to the house of David.
In the Name of Jesus Christ:
of His own will, God brought us forth by the word of truth,
that we should be a kind of First-Fruits of His creatures,
in the Name of Jesus Christ,
Whom the God of our fathers hath glorified.
Written by: Luke the Evangelist, Sir Edward Elgar, [anonymous]
