Author: Hart Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #104 (1844) Meter: 8.3 First Line: Righteousness to the believer Lyrics: 1 Righteousness to the believer,
Freely given, comes from heaven,
God himself the giver.
2 Christ has wrought this mighty wonder;
God and man by him can
Meet, and never sunder.
3 All the law in human nature
He fulfilled; reconciled
Creature and Creator.
4 Every one, without exemption,
That believes, now receives
Absolute redemption.
5 [Robes of righteousness imputed,
White and whole, clothe the soul,
Each exactly suited.]
6 ’Tis a way of God’s own finding;
’Tis his act, and the pact
Cannot but be binding.
7 Here is no prevarication;
Justice stands, and demands
Full and free salvation. Topics: Christ's Righteousness Languages: English
