Lyics

Hark! the voice of love and mercy

Sounds aloud from Calvary;

See! it rends the rocks asunder,

Shakes the earth and vails the sky!

It is finished!

Hear the dying Savior cry.



It is finished!  Oh what pleasure

Do these precious words afford!

Heavenly blessings without measure

Flow to us from Christ the Lord;

It is finished!

Saints, the dying words record.



Finished all the types and shadows

Of the ceremonial law!

Finished all that God had promised;

Death and hell no more shall awe:

It is finished!

Saints, from this your comfort draw.
