Immerse Me Lord

Album: Be Honest

Written By: Brad Eberly

Song Description:

The concept of Biblical baptism is being comnpletely immersed in water symbolizing the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus. Christian baptism is the public statement of the believer that he/she identifies fully with this redeeming work of Christ. One of the difficult realities of Christian faith is that the resurrection life that we all desire comes only after the death of ourselves. Too many believers never come to terms with their own death to themselves and as a result, never experience the fullness of Christ that is offered to them. This song was written in partnership with my good friend Al Kerbey to be used during baptism. At our church, we worship while people are being baptised and celebrate their statement of faith together in that way.
