LyicsIN vain we seek for peace with God
By methods of our own:
Blest Saviour, nothing but thy blood
Can bring us near the throne.
The threat'nings of thy broken law
Impress the soul with dread:
If God his sword of vengeance draw
It strikes the spirit dead.
'Tis by thy death we live, O Lord!
'Tis on thy cross we rest:
Forever be thy love ador'd,
Thy name forever blest.
