By thy merit we find favour; life is given through thy name. 2 Paschal Lamb by God appointed, all our sins on thee were laid; by almighty love anointed, thou hast full atonement made. All thy people are forgiven through the virtue of thy blood; opened is the gate of heaven; reconciled are we with God. 3 Jesus, hail! Enthroned in glory, there for ever to abide; all the heavenly host adore thee, seated at thy Father's side. There for sinners thou art pleading, there thou dost our place prepare, ever for us interceding, till in glory we appear.
