Jesus Lord, Almighty Saviour,
Bowed in death on Calvary's tree!
Darkest hour of bitter judgment
Borne to set Thy people free!
Sweet our portion,
As we thus remember Thee.
From the highest height of glory
To the cross of deepest shame,
Thus accomplishing redemption
Jesus in His pity came;
Precious Saviour,
We adore Thy matchless name.
From the darkness and the distance,
From the crushing sense of sin,
Blessed Lord, Thou now hast freed us,
By Thy blood hast made us clean;
In Thy beauty
Now Thy ransomed ones are seen.
