Hark! the voice of love and mercy
|
|
| 1. | Hark! the voice of love and mercy |
| | Sounds aloud from Calvary; |
| | See, it rends the rocks asunder, |
| | Shakes the earth, and veils the sky: |
| | "It is finished!" "It is finished!" |
| | Hear the dying Savior cry. |
| 2. | "It is finished!" Oh, what pleasure |
| | Do these charming words afford! |
| | Heavenly blessings without measure |
| | Flow to us from Christ, the Lord: |
| | "It is finished!" "It is finished!" |
| | Saints, the dying words record. |
| 3. | Finished all the types and shadows |
| | Of the ceremonial law! |
| | Finished all that God had promised; |
| | Death and hell no more shall awe: |
| | "It is finished!" "It is finished!" |
| | Saints, from hence your comfort draw. |
| 4. | Tune your harps anew, ye seraphs, |
| | Join to sing the pleasing theme; |
| | All on earth and all in heaven |
| | Join to praise Immanuel's name: |
| | Hallelujah! Hallelujah! |
| | Glory to the bleeding Lamb! |
