12. Unto thine altar Lord

1 Unto thine altar Lord,
A broken heart I bring;
And wilt thou graciously accept
Of such a worthless thing?

2 To CHRIST the bleeding lamb,
My faith directs its eyes
Thou may'st reject that worthless thing,
But not his sacrifice.

3 When he gave up the Ghost,
The law was satisfy'd;
And now to its most rigorous claims,
I answer, "JESUS died."
