“I come,” the great Redeemer cries,
“A year of freedom to declare;
From debts and bondage to discharge,
And Jews and Greeks the grace shall share.”
“A day of vengeance I proclaim,
But not on man the storm shall fall;
On me its thunders shall descend,
My strength, my love sustain them all.”
Stupendous favour! matchless grace!
Jesus has died that we might live—
Not worlds below, nor worlds above,
Could so divine a ransom give.
To him who loved our ruined race,
And for our lives laid down his own,
Let songs of joyful praises rise,
Sublime, eternal as his throne.
