SALVATION THROUGH CHRIST.
1 Truth, wisdom, justice, power and love,
In all their glory shone,
When Jesus left the courts above,
And died to save his own.
5 Truth, wisdom, justice, power and love.
Are equally displayed.
Now Jesus reigns enthroned above
Our Advocate and Head.
6 Now sin appears deserving death,
Most hateful and abhorred ;
And yet the sinner lives by faith,
And dares approach the Tord.
174 C. M.
Complete salvation.
1 C ALVATION through our dying God
Is finished and complete ;
He paid what’er his people owed,
And cancelled all their debt.
2 He sends his Spirit from above,
Our nature to renew ;
Displays his power, reveals his love,
Gives life and comfort too.
3 He heals our wounds, subdues our foes,
And shows our sins forgiven ;
Conducts us through the wilderness,
And brings us safe to heaven.
4 Salvation now shall be my stay ;
‘A sinner saved,’ I 11 cry ;
Then gladly quit this mortal clay,
For better joys on high.
