Jesus, My Savior, Died

Jesus

my Sav­ior

died

nailed to the tree—

Cruelly cru­ci­fied

strick­en for me!

Darkness there shut Him in!

God judged Him for my sin!

Jesus

my soul to win

died there for me!

Jesus

my Sav­ior

rose out of the grave!

Captive He led my foes

my soul to save!

Jesus in Heav­en now

glo­ry up­on His brow

Calleth to men be­low

sin­ners to save!

Jesus

my Sav­ior

lives for me above;

Mercy and grace He gives free­ly in love;

By my in­fir­mi­ty ten­der­ly moved is He;

Sweet is His sym­pa­thy

sweet is His love!

Jesus! be­yond the sky

now on God’s throne

Looking with lov­ing eye down on Thine own;

Soon in that won­drous place

Sweetly we’ll sing Thy grace

Gazing up­on Thy face—all of Thine own!
