91. Oh What a Debt We Owe

S.M.
by G.V. Wigram
1
Oh what a debt we owe
 
To Him who shed His blood,
 
And cleansed our souls, and gave us power
 
To stand before His God.
“For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.” (Matthew 26:28)
“But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.” (1 John 1:7)
“For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father.” (Ephesians 2:18)
2
Savior and Lord! we own
 
The riches of Thy grace;
 
For we can call Thy God, our God — 
 
Can bow before His face.
“And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.” (1 John 4:14)
“The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven.” (1 Corinthians 15:47)
3
Thy Father, too, above,
 
We worship as our own,
 
Who gave with Thee the Spirit’s cry,
 
To us His sons foreknown.
