Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.
Mark 16:16
Words: James Newton, in the Collection of Ash and Evans (Bristol, England: 1769).
Music: Far and Near (Spazier) Johann K. Spazier (1761–1805) (🔊 pdf nwc).
If you know when the music was written, or where to get a good picture of Spazier or Newton,
Proclaim,
saith Christ, My wondrous grace
To all the sons of men;
He that believes, and is baptized,
Salvation shall obtain.
Let plenteous grace descend on those
Who, hoping in Thy Word,
This day have publicly declared
That Jesus is their Lord.
With cheerful feet, may they advance
And run the Christian race;
And thro’ the troubles of the way,
Find all sufficient grace.
