<p>By the cross of Jesus standing,<br>
Love our straitened souls expanding,<br>
Taste we now the peace and grace!<br>
Health from yonder tree is flowing,<br>
Heav&#8217;nly light is on it glowing,<br>
From the blessed Sufferer&#8217;s face.</p>
<p>Here is pardon&#8217;s pledge and token,<br>
Guilt&#8217;s strong chain forever broken,<br>
Righteous peace securely made;<br>
Brightens now the brow once shaded,<br>
Freshens now the face once faded,<br>
Peace with God now makes us glad.</p>
<p>All the love of God is yonder,<br>
Love above all thought and wonder,<br>
Perfect love that casts out fear!<br>
Strength, like dew, is here distilling,<br>
Glorious life our souls is filling,<br>
Life eternal, only here!</p>
<p>Here the living water welleth;<br>
Here the Rock, now smitten, telleth<br>
Of salvation freely giv&#8217;n:<br>
This the fount of love and pity,<br>
This the pathway to the city,<br>
This the very gate of heav&#8217;n.</p>
