LyicsAND did the holy and the just,
The sov'reign of the skies,
Stoop down to wretchedness and dust,
That guilty man might rise!
Yes, the Redeemer left his throne-
His radiant throne on high;
Surprising mercy! love unknown!
To suffer, bleed and die.
He took the dying rebels place,
And suffer'd in his stead;
For sinful man-oh! wond'rous grace!
For sinful man he bled!
O Lord, what heavenly wonders dwell
In thy most precious blood!
By this are sinners sav'd from hell,
And rebels brought to God.
