Hymn Context Compare
Sinners, whose love can ne’er forget
Cunning are the foe’s de­vic­es,
Wounds, our trea­sure that en­hance,
Here per­fect bliss can ne’er be found,
Who but Thou had dared to drain,
The souls of sin­ful men to win.
A sin­less sac­ri­fice,
From sin’s per­ni­cious lures he turned;
Has this de­fect en­twined;
We give our souls the wounds they feel,
The Hol­ly bears a bark,
Hath our sal­va­tion earned!
View the Lord of life ar­raigned;
Ours the sin from Heav’n that called Him,
Sinners, whose love can ne’er forget
I gave my heart, my life, my all
I gave my heart, my life, my all
start
Confessed and borne by Thee;
Confessed and borne by Thee;

gall

The wormwood and the gall,
Sin on ev­ery side en­tic­es;
And the pang His soul that freed.
Midst chang­ing scenes and dy­ing friends,
And with ten­der bo­dy bear
Was placed by me up­on His tongue;
For man the Vic­tim dies.
And thus he reached Thy heav’n­ly hall.
My spir­it, heart and mind!
And rush with fu­ry down to hell;
And Ma­ry bore sweet Je­sus Christ,
The grave no more ap­palls us,
O the pangs His soul sus­tained!
In the sad Geth­se­ma­ne.
Go, spread your trophies at His feet.
To raise the guil­ty from the fall
To raise the guil­ty from the fall
Chained like a slave I struggled in vain;
To set Thy members free.
To set Thy mem­bers free.
