HYMN 106. (S. M.) Dead to Sin by the Cross of Christ, Rom. vi. 1, 2, 6.
I
Shall we go on to sinBecause thy grace abounds,
Or crucify the Lord again,
And open all his wounds?
II
Forbid it, mighty God,Nor let it e'er be said
That we whose sins are crucified
Should raise them from the dead.
III
We will be slaves no more,Since Christ has made us free,
Has nail'd our tyrants to his cross,
And bought our liberty.
