Yardenit - Baptismal Site in the Jordan River http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AxQmu3NoNTk


Written on the wall is the baptism of Jesus by John the Baptist in Tagalog - the official language of the Philippines - the only Roman Catholic nation in Asia.Brother Don did the baptismal rite - the heavens did not open and no dove came down but it's fine because it's the spirit that counts.

Sunday, January 9, 2009 - Baptism of Jesus

Shall we gather at the river,

Where bright angel feet have trod,

With its crystal tide forever,

Flowing by the throne of God?

(Refrain)

Yes, we'll gather at the river,

The beautiful, the beautiful river,

Gather with the saints at the river

That flows by the throne of God.

On the margin of the river,

Washing up its silver spray,

We will walk and worship ever,

All the happy golden day.

Ere we reach the shining river,

Lay we ev'ry burden down;

Grace our spirits will deliverer,

And provide a robe and crown.

Soon we'll reach the shining river,

Soon our pilgrimage will cease;

Soon our happy hearts will quiver

With the melody of peace.

* Text: 87 87 with refrain; Revelation 22:1-5. Music: Robert Lowry, 1826-1899
