VIII. JUST BEFORE THEIR BEING LED OUT TO EXECUTION.
Justice, thy summons we obey,
And come our forfeit lives to pay,
While God and man we justify,
And by a righteous sentence die.
And come our forfeit lives to pay,
345
And by a righteous sentence die.
But the great God in whom we trust
Is merciful as well as just;
And Jesu's blood for sin atones,
And will not let us die but once!
Is merciful as well as just;
And Jesu's blood for sin atones,
And will not let us die but once!
Jesus, into Thy hands we fall,
With our last breath for mercy call,
To Thee our ransom'd spirits commend,
And hope that heaven is in our end.
With our last breath for mercy call,
To Thee our ransom'd spirits commend,
And hope that heaven is in our end.
Because Thou hangedst on a tree,
And didst Thyself expire for me,
Me and my dying mates receive,
And bid our souls for ever live!
And didst Thyself expire for me,
Me and my dying mates receive,
And bid our souls for ever live!
