Christ

 
Of Him the Scriptures speak,
His worth, and work, and ways;
His wondrous grace, His matchless love,
Calling for ceaseless praise.
By Him all that believe
Are justified and free;
Their sins are all on Jesus laid,
On Calv’ry’s awful tree.
In Him accepted now,
All His in favor stand;
Nor condemnation ever dread,
Safe hid within His hand.
With Him the countless throng
Of blood-washed ones shall dwell,
And through a long eternity
His praise their song shall swell.
