There is life for a look at the Crucified
|
|
| 1. | There is life for a look at the Crucified |
| | One, |
| | There is life at this moment for thee; |
| | Then look, sinner, look unto Him and |
| | be saved, |
| | Unto Him who was nailed to the tree. |
| | Look! Look! Look and live! |
| | There is life for a look at the |
| | Crucified One, |
| | There is life at this moment for thee. |
| 2. | Oh, why was He there as the Bearer of |
| | sin, |
| | If on Jesus thy guilt was not laid? |
| | Oh, why from His side flowed the sin- |
| | cleansing blood, |
| | If His dying thy debt has not paid? |
| 3. | It is not thy tears of repentance or |
| | prayers, |
| | But the blood, that redeemeth the soul; |
| | On Him, then, who shed it, thou mayest |
| | at once |
| | Thy weight of iniquities roll. |
| 4. | Then doubt not thy welcome, since |
| | God has declared |
| | There remaineth no more to be done; |
| | That once in the end of the world He |
| | appeared, |
| | And completed the work He begun. |
| 5. | Then take with rejoicing from Jesus at |
| | once |
| | The life everlasting He gives; |
| | And know with assurance, thou never |
| | canst die |
| | Since Jesus, thy Righteousness, lives. |
