O Christ, our ever blesséd Lord,
For man’s transgression slain,
We thy redeeming love record
In songs of thankful strain.
We upward lift our longing eyes,
And muse on Calvary;
On thy mysterious sacri?ce,
Thy shame and agony.
We all like erring sheep had strayed
From God the Father‘s care;
The guilt of all on thee was laid,
Our burden thou didst bear.
O Christ, be thou our present joy,
Our future great reward;
Our only glory may it be,
To glory in the Lord!
Oh may we through thy cross and pain,
With all who thee adore,
A blesséd resurrection gain,
And life for evermore!
