When Jesus bowed his head and died,
God’s holy law was satisfied;
Its awful penalties he bore,
And now it speaks of wrath no more.
its covenant form has disappeared,
‘Do this and live,’ no more is heard;
Yet Christ supports its gentle sway,
And we with sweet delight obey.
His righteousness without a flaw,
Atoned for sin, fulfilled the law;
No longer Sinai’s thunder roar
The sky’s serene, the storm is o’er.
