Author: Charles Wesley (1707-1788) Hymnal: Common Praise (1998) #195 (1998) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 'Tis finished! the Messiah dies,
cut off for sins, but not his own.
Accomplished is the sacrifice,
the great redeeming work is done.
2 The veil is rent; in Christ alone
the living way to heaven is seen.
The middle wall is broken down,
and all the world may enter in.
3 'Tis finished! All my guilt and pain,
I want no sacrifice beside;
for me, for me the Lamb is slain;
'tis finished! I am justified.
4 The reign of sin and death is o'er,
and all may live from sin set free;
Satan hath lost his mortal power;
'tis swallowed up in victory. Topics: Holy Week (Good Friday) Scripture: Matthew 27:11-54 Languages: English Tune Title: BABYLON'S STREAMS
