LyicsHARK! the voice of love and mercy
Sounds aloud from Calvary;
See! it reads 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 blessings 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 ceremonial 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.
