<p>Would Jesus have the sinner die?<br>
Why hangs He then on yonder tree?<br>
What means that strange expiring cry?<br>
(Sinners, He prays for you and me)<br>
&#8220;Forgive them, Father, O forgive,<br>
They know not that by Me they live,&#8221;<br>
&#8220;They know not that by Me they live!&#8221;
<p>Adam descended from above,<br>
Our loss of Eden to retrieve,<br>
Great God of universal love,<br>
If all the world through Thee may live,<br>
In us a quickening Spirit be,<br>
And witness Thou hast died for me,<br>
And witness Thou hast died for me!
<p>Thou loving, all-atoning Lamb,<br>
Thee&#8212;by Thy painful agony,<br>
Thy bloody sweat, Thy grief and shame,<br>
Thy cross and passion on the tree,<br>
Thy precious death and life&#8212;I pray,<br>
Take all, take all my sins away,<br>
Take all, take all my sins away!
<p>O let me kiss Thy bleeding feet,<br>
And bathe and wash them with my tears!<br>
The story of Thy love repeat<br>
In every drooping sinner&#8217;s ears,<br>
That all may hear the quickening sound,<br>
Since I, even I, have mercy found,<br>
Since I, even I, have mercy found.
<p>O let Thy love my heart constrain!<br>
Thy love for every sinner free,<br>
That every fallen soul of man<br>
May taste the grace that found out me;<br>
That all mankind with me may prove<br>
Thy sovereign everlasting love,<br>
Thy sovereign everlasting love.</p>
