Lyics

HARK! the voice of love and mercy

Sounds aloud from Calvary;

See! it rends the rocks asunder,

Shakes the earth, and veils the sky!

It is finish'd!

Hear the dying Saviour cry.



It is finish'd!  O what pleasure

Do these precious words afford!

Heav'nly pleasures without measure

Flow to us from Christ the Lord;

It is finish'd!

Saints, the dying words record.



Finish'd all the types and shadows

Of the once unfinish'd law!

Finish'd all that God had promis'd,

Death and hell no more shall awe:

It is finish'd!

Saints, from this your comfort draw.



Tune your harps anew, you seraphs,

Join to sing the pleasing theme;

All on earth and all in heaven,

Join to praise Immanuel's name:

Hallelujah!

Glory to the bleeding Lamb!
