When Jesus Christ Was Baptized (Friend)
1. When Jesus Christ was baptized
Down in the River Jordan,
Three members of the Godhead were present there that day.
I wish that I had been there
When Jesus Christ was baptized,
To see the heavens open
Above the earth that day.
2. I wonder what John felt like,
Who baptized by immersion,
To hear a voice from heaven approving of the way.
Although I was not present
When Jesus Christ was baptized,
I always will remember
It was a sacred day.
