Redeemed Hymn 156 – O Perfect Life of Love!

“It is finished” -John 19:30

1 O perfect life of love!

All, all is finished now,

All that He left His throne above,

To do for us below.

 

2 No work is left undone

Of all the Father willed;

His toils and sorrows, one by one,

The Scriptures have fulfilled.

 

3 No pain that we can share

But He has felt its smart;

All forms of human grief and care

Have pierced that tender heart.

 

4 And on His thorn-crowned head,

And on His sinless soul,

Our sins in all their guilt were laid

That He might make us whole.

 

5 In perfect love He dies;

For me He dies, for me!

O all atoning sacrifice,

I cling by faith to Thee.

 

6 In every time of need,

Before the judgment throne,

Thy work, 0 Lamb of God,

I’ll plead, Thy merits, not my own.

 

7 Yet work, O Lord, in me,

As Thou for me hast wrought;

And let my love the answer be

To grace Thy love his brought.
