'Tis finished! The Messiah Dies

Author: Charles Wesley (1707-1788) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 67 hymnals Lyrics: 1 'Tis finished! the Messiah dies, cut off for sins, but not his own. Accomplished is the sacrifice, the great redeeming work is done. 2 The veil is rent; in Christ alone the living way to heaven is seen. The middle wall is broken down, and all the world may enter in. 3 'Tis finished! All my guilt and pain, I want no sacrifice beside; for me, for me the Lamb is slain; 'tis finished! I am justified. 4 The reign of sin and death is o'er, and all may live from sin set free; Satan hath lost his mortal power; 'tis swallowed up in victory.

Now Is the Healing Time Decreed

Author: Anonymous; Thomas A. Lacey Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 7 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Now is the healing time decreed For sins of heart, of word or deed, When we in humble fear record The wrong that we have done the Lord. 2. Who, always merciful and good, Has borne so long our wayward mood, Nor cut us off unsparingly In our so great iniquity. 3. Therefore with fasting and with prayer, Our secret sorrow we declare; With all good striving seek His face, And lowly hearted plead for grace. 4. Cleanse us, O Lord, from every stain, Help us the meed of praise to gain, Till with the angels linked in love Joyful we tread Thy courts above. 5. Father and Son and Spirit blest, To Thee be every prayer addrest, Who art in threefold name adored, From age to age, the only Lord.
