No blood of goats nor heifers slain
For sin could e'er atone;
The death of Christ shall still remain
Sufficient and alone.
A soul oppressed with sin's desert
The Lord will ne'er despise;
An humble groan, a broken heart,
Is our best sacrifice.
O God of mercy, hear my call,
My load of guilt remove;
Break down the separating wall
That bars me from thy love.
Give me the presence of thy grace:
Then my rejoicing tongue
Shall speak aloud thy righteousness,
And make thy praise my song.
