Myself as in a glass
I in Barabbas see,
And, Lord, Thou takest the sinner's place,
A criminal for me:
Me by Thy mortal smart
Thou dost from death release:
Thy blood is sprinkled on my heart,
And bids me go in peace.

Thou dost from death release:
Thy blood is sprinkled on my heart,
And bids me go in peace.
Father, behold Thy Son,
And me, even me in Him
Who doth for all my sins atone,
And by His death redeem;
As fasten'd to the tree,
As cover'd with His blood
His purchase and His member see
For ever one with God.
And me, even me in Him
Who doth for all my sins atone,
And by His death redeem;
As fasten'd to the tree,
As cover'd with His blood
His purchase and His member see
For ever one with God.
