THE MOST HOLY NAME.
Baptizing them in the Name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost.”
ONCE in His Name who made thee, Once in His Name who died for thee, Once in His Name who lives to aid thee, We plunge thee in Love’s boundless sea.
Christian, dear child, we call thee; Threefold the Eath, the Name is One: Henceforth no evil dream befall thee, Now is thy heavenly rest begun.
