Victim Divine

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: The Faith We Sing #2259 (2001) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 First Line: Victim Divine, thy grace we claim Lyrics: 1 Victim Divine, thy grace we claim while thus thy precious death we show; once offered up, a spotless Lamb, in thy great temple here below, thou didst for all our kind atone, and standest now before the throne. 2 Thou standest in the holiest place, as now for guilty sinners slain; thy blood of sprinkling speaks, and prays, all prevalent for helpless ones; thy blood is still our ransom found, and spreads salvation all around. 3 The smoke of thy atonement here darkened the sun and rent the veil, made the new way to heaven appear, and showed the great Invisible; well pleased in thee our God looked down, and called his rebels to a crown. 4 He still respects thy sacrifice, its savor sweet doth always please; the offering smokes through earth and skies, diffusing life, and joy, and peace; to these thy lower courts it comes, and fills them with divine perfumes. 5 We need not now go up to heaven, to bring the long sought Savior down; thou art to all already given, thou dost e’en now thy banquet crown: To every faithful soul appear, and show thy real presence here!

Victim Divine, Your Grace We Claim

Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: Lutheran Book of Worship #202 (1978) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Victim Divine, your grace we claim, As here your precious death we show; Once offered up, a spotless lamb, In your great temple here below, You did for humankind atone; And now you stand before the throne. 2 You stand within the holiest place, As once for guilty sinners slain; Your blood for sinners intercedes, Redemption for the world to gain. Your blood shall still our ransom be, The payment made to set us free. 3 We have no need to go to heav'n To bring the long-sought Savior down; You are to all already giv'n, And even now your banquet crown. To ev'ry faithful soul appear, And show your very presence here. Topics: Holy Communion; Atonement; Holy Communion Languages: English Tune Title: DAS NEUGEBORNE KINDELEIN
