'Tis finished! The Messiah Dies

Author: Charles Wesley (1707-1788) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 70 hymnals Scripture: John 18, 19 Lyrics: 1 'Tis finished! the Messiah dies, cut off for sins, but not his own.

The middle wall is broken down, and all the world may enter in. 3 'Tis finished! All my guilt and pain, I want no sacrifice beside; for me, for me the Lamb is slain; 'tis finished! I am justified. 4 The reign of sin and death is o'er, and all may live from sin set free; Satan hath lost his mortal power; 'tis swallowed up in victory.
