Lyrics

Jesus, our Lord and king,
To You our prais­es rise;
To You our bo­dies we pre­sent,
A liv­ing sac­ri­fice.

Now jus­ti­fied by grace,
And made alive to God,
Formed for Your­self to show Your praise,
We sound Your love abroad.

As dead in­deed to sin,
We rise to walk anew,
Henceforth, as not our own, but Yours,
We fol­low on­ly You.

Baptized in­to Your death,
With You again we rise,
To new­ness of a life of faith,
To new and end­less joys.
