LyicsWe sing our Saviour's wond'rous death-
He conquer'd when he fell;
"'Tis finished," said his dying breath,
And shook the gates of hell.
"'Tis finish'd!" our Immanuel cries,
The dreadful work is done;
Hence shall his sov'reign throne arise,
His kingdom is begun.
His cross a sure foundation laid
For glory and renown,
When through the regions of the dead
He pass'd to reach the crown.
Raise your devotion, mortal tongues,
His praises to record;
Sweet be the accents of your songs
To your victorious Lord.
Bright angels, strike your loudest strings,
Your sweetest voices raise;
Let heav'n, and all created things,
Sound our Immanuel's praise!
