You have suffered to release us, Hope, salvation, joy to bring. Hail, O agonizing Savior, bearer of our sin and shame; by your merits we find favor; life is given through your name. 2 Paschal Lamb, by God appointed, all our sins on you were laid; by almighty love anointed, you have full atonement made. All your people are forgiven through the virtue of your blood; opened is the gate of heaven; we are reconciled to God. 3 Jesus! Heav'nly hosts adore you, seated at your Father's side. Crucified this world once saw you; now in glory you abide. There for sinners you are pleading, And our place you now prepare, ever for us interceding, till in glory we appear. 4 Worship, honor, pow'r and blessing you are worthy to receive; loudest praises without ceasing, right it is for us to give. Help, O bright angelic spirits, all your noblest anthems raise, help us sing our Savior's merits, help to chant Immanuel's praise.

I've borne, I've borne it all for thee, What hast thou borne for Me? 4 And I have brought to thee, Down from My home above, Salvation full and free, My pardon and My love; I bring, I bring rich gifts to thee, What hast thou brought to Me?
