LyicsFREE from the law, O happy condition!
Jesus hath bled, and there is remission;
Curs'd by the law, and bruis'd by the fall,
Grace hath redeem'd us once for all.--CHO.
Chorus.--Once for all, O sinner receive it!
Once for all, O brother, believe it!
Cling to the cross, the burden will fall,
Christ hath redeem'd us once for all.
Now are we free--there's no condemnation,
Jesus provides a perfect salvation;
"Come unto Me:" O hear His sweet call!
Come, and He saves us once for all.--CHO.
"Children of God." O glorious calling!
Surely His grace will keep us from falling;
Passing from death to life at His call,
Blessed salvation once for all.--CHO.
