Christ, the Life of All the Living

Author: Ernst C. Homburg; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #900 Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1. Christ, the Life of all the living, Christ the Death of death, our foe, Who Thyself for us once giving To the darkest depths of woe, Patiently didst yield Thy breath But to save my soul from death; Praise and glory ever be, Blessèd Jesus, unto Thee. 2. Thou, O Christ, hast taken on Thee Bitter strokes, a cruel rod; Pain and scorn were heaped upon Thee, O Thou sinless Son of God, Only thus for me to win Rescue from the bonds of sin; Praise and glory ever be, Blessèd Jesus, unto Thee. 3. Thou didst bear the smiting only That it might not fall on me; Stoodest falsely charged and lonely That I might be safe and free; Comfortless that I might know Comfort from Thy boundless woe. Praise and glory ever be, Blessèd Jesus, unto Thee. 4. Heartless scoffers did surround Thee, Treating Thee with shameful scorn And with piercing thorns they crowned Thee, All disgrace Thou, Lord, hast borne That as Thine Thou mightest own me And with heavenly glory crown me. Thousand, thousand thanks shall be, Dearest Jesus, unto Thee. 5. Thou hast suffered men to bruise Thee That from pain I might be free; Falsely did Thy foes accuse Thee, Thence I gain security; Comfortless Thy soul did languish Me to comfort in my anguish. Thousand, thousand thanks shall be, Dearest Jesus, unto Thee. 6. Thou hast suffered great affliction, And hast borne it patiently, Even death by crucifixion, Fully to atone for me; Thou didst choose to be tormented That my doom should be prevented. Thousand, thousand thanks shall be, Dearest Jesus, unto Thee. 7. Then, for all that wrought our pardon, For Thy sorrows deep and sore, For Thine anguish in the garden, I will thank Thee evermore; Thank Thee with my latest breath For Thy sad and cruel death, For that last and bitter cry Praise Thee evermore on high.

I was blind, but now I see— Jesus paid the debt for me. 2 Once my ears could find no music In His tender, pleading voice; Now He speaks, and each low whisper Makes my trembling heart rejoice. His dear word hath made me free— Oh, what boundless liberty! His dear word hath made me free— Oh, what boundless liberty! 3 Once my robes, by sin polluted, Were as filthy rags unclean; In the great King’s royal presence I could never thus be seen. I am whiter now than snow— Jesus’ blood has made me so. I am whiter now than snow— Jesus’ blood has made me so. 4 Once I roamed in deserts dreary, Sought in vain a place of rest; Now my soul, no longer weary, Leans entranced upon His breast. Blessedness beyond degree, Jesus is a rest for me! Blessedness beyond degree, Jesus is a rest for me! 5 Hallelujah, what a Savior! Half His love was never told; I have found His kingly favor Richer treasure far than gold. Praise Him, O my ransomed soul, While eternal ages roll. Praise Him, O my ransomed soul, While eternal ages roll. 6 Oh, that all who hear the story For themselves would taste and see; Come to Him; His banner o’er thee Everlasting love shall be. To Thy weary soul be given Rest on earth and rest in Heaven. To Thy weary soul be given Rest on earth and rest in Heaven. Languages: English Tune Title: TIJUANA
