| When Jesus heard that, He said unto them, They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick. But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance. (Matt. 9:12‑13) |
Unto a dying, sin-cursed world
New life that day He gave,
And saving others on the tree,
Himself He could not save;
He yielded up His life, but lo,
Death could not hold Him prey;
He burst apart its cruel bands,
And rose to reign for aye;
The Lord of life and light, He rose,
Eternal life to give
To all who by dark Calvary’s way
Will come to Him and live. |
