132. The great mediator

1 There’s a joyful message written in His word—
Jesus is the great Mediator;
To the soul the sweetest music ever heard—
Jesus is the great Mediator.

Refrain:
I will praise Him, I will praise Him,
For I love to sing the story
How His love has made me whole;
Hallelujah! hallelujah!
He’s the Saviour and Redeemer of my soul.

2 On the cross He shed His precious blood for me—
Jesus is the great Mediator;
From the grave He rose with saving victory—
Jesus is the great Mediator. [Refrain]

3 When before me all my years of sin arise—
Jesus is the great Mediator;
Unto Him in faith my trembling spirit flies—
Jesus is the great Mediator. [Refrain]

4 Earthly creeds may fail and kingdoms pass away—
Jesus is the great Mediator;
Countless worlds forever shall His word obey—
Jesus is the great Mediator. [Refrain]

5 I will praise Him while my soul His call awaits—
Jesus is the great Mediator;
I will shout His name while sweeping thro’ the gates—
Jesus is the great Mediator. [Refrain]
