82. 'Tis Finished! so the Savior Cried

1 'Tis finished! so the Savior cried,
And meekly bowed His head and died:
'Tis finished! yes, the race is run,
The battle fought, the victory won.

2 'Tis finished! all that heaven decreed
And all the ancient prophets said
Is now fulfilled, as was designed,
In Me, the Savior of mankind.

3 'Tis finished! this My dying groan
Shall sins of ev'ry kind atone;
Millions shall be redeemed from death,
By this My last expiring breath.

4 'Tis finished! let the joyful sound
Be heard thro' all the nations round;
'Tis finished! let the echo fly
Thro' heav'n and hell, thro' earth and sky.
