Ye mourning saints, behold
The Lamb that once was slain;
See, see him on the cross expire,
In agonizing pain.
The fruits of glory grow
On that accursed tree;
The Saviour dies, the sinner lives,
His bondage sets us free.
The law he satisfied,
And paid the debt we owed,
Atoned our guilt, our grief sustained,
A vast oppressive load.
‘Tis from his dying groans,
Our loud hosannas rise;
By faith in him our souls aspire
To mansions in the skies.
In our united songs,
let us his grace proclaim;
For us he died and rose again,
Exalted be his name.
