Sing to the Lord, ye heirs of faith,
Of Abrah'ms chosen seed.
The law that sentenc'd you to death,
is now through Jesus dead.
Our Surety by his cross has broke
The law's condemning pow'r,
For on himself our sins he took,
And the hand writing tore.
He bore our sins, and set us free;
No charge on us can lie:
His blood’s an all-sufficient plea,
Our souls to justify.
BY legal works no more we strive
To be discharg’d from guilt:
Dead to the law, to Christ we live,
Whose blood for us was spilt.
Adore the Father’s sovereign love,
Who gave his only Son
Our curse and mis’ry to remove,
And make his mercy known.
