God laid my sins on Jesus

lyricist: Adapted
Composer: George James Webb

God laid my sins on Jesus

His spotless

holy Lamb;

Instead of me

God cursed Him;

Now full released I am.

Upon His faultless Lamb

my

Transgressions God did lay

Made Him in my place suffer

My debt of sins repay.

My sickness laid on Jesus

The lash for me endured;

My weaknesses He carried

That I be fully cured.

I lay my griefs on Jesus;

He bears them all for me;

My sorrows

pains

abolished;

What joy and peace I see!

I now have rest in Jesus

My King of Righteousness;

His death God satisfied

and

His blood my conscience cleansed.

Now all my trust’s in Jesus

My strength for ev’ry hour;

His living shows God’s riches;

His risen life empow’rs.

I hand my heart to Jesus

That in it He would reign

To be my Lord and life

and

Make home in me for aye.

I long to be like Jesus

His image live each day

In attitude and actions

Him evermore display!
