The holy, meek, unspotted Lamb,
Who from the Father’s bosom came,
Who died for me e’en me to atone,—
Now for my Lord and God I own.
Lord, I believe, thy precious blood,
Which, at the mercy-seat of God
For ever doth for sinners plead,
For me, in all my sins, was shed.
Lord, I believe were sinners more
Than sands upon the ocean shore,
Thou hast for all a ransom paid,
For all a full atonement made.
Thus Abraham, the friend of God,
Thus all heaven’s armies, bought with blood
Saviour of sinners thee proclaim ,—
Sinners, the chief of whom I am.
