445. Jesus Lord, Almighty Saviour

1 Jesus Lord, Almighty Saviour,
Bowed in death on Calv'ry's tree!
Darkest hour of bitter judgment
Bourne to set Thy people free!
Sweet our portion, sweet our portion,
As we thus remember Thee.

2 From the highest height of glory
To the cross of deepest shame,
Thus accomplishing redemption
Jesus in His pity came;
Precious Saviour, precious Saviour,
We adore Thy matchless name.

3 From the darkness nd the distance,
From the crushing sense of sin,
Blessed Lord, Thou now hast freed us,
By Thy blood hast made us clean;
In Thy beauty, in Thy beauty
Now Thy ramsomed ones are seen.
