Jesus, the sinner’s Friend

Jesus

the sinner’s Friend

We hide ourselves in Thee;

God looks upon Thy sprinkled blood

It is our only plea.

He hears Thy precious Name

We claim it as our own;

The Father must accept and bless

His well-beloved Son.

Thou hast fulfilled the law

And we are justified:

Ours is the blessing

Thine the curse;

We live

for Thou hast died.

Jesus

the sinner’s Friend!

We cannot speak Thy praise;

No mortal voice can sing the song

That ransomed hearts would raise.

But when before the throne

Thy face we all shall see

Clothed in our blood-bought robes of white

We’ll stand complete in Thee.

Jesus

we’ll give Thee then

Such praises as are meet

And give ten thousand thanks to Thee

Adoring

at Thy feet.
