L. M.

Author: Hart Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: Romans 4:25 First Line: Jesus, when on the bloody tree Lyrics: 1 Jesus, when on the bloody tree He hung, through soul and body pierced, That all things might accomplished be Contained in Scripture, said, “I thirst.” 2 Hyssop, the plant ordained by God, And held by Jews in high esteem, Which sprinkled them with paschal blood, Sharp vinegar conveyed to him. 3 This done, our dear, our dying Lord Exerts his short, expiring breath; Utters this rich, important word, “’Tis finished!” and submits to death. 4 Henceforth an end is put to sin (The important word implies not less). Now for believers is brought in An everlasting righteousness. 5 The Son of God and man, has died, Sinners as black as hell to save; And, that they might be justified, Is risen victorious from the grave. 6 In heaven he lives, our King, our Priest; There for his people ever pleads: How sure is our salvation! Christ Died, rose, ascended, intercedes.
