O Blessed Day When First was Poured

Author: John Chandler; Sabastien Besnault Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 17 hymnals Scripture: Galatians 4:4-5 Lyrics: 1 O blessed day when first was poured The blood of our redeeming Lord! O blessed day when Christ began His saving work for sinful man! 2 While from His mother's bosom fed, His precious blood He wills to shed; A foretaste of His death He feels, An earnest of His love reveals. 3 Scarce come to earth, His Father's will With prompt obedience to fulfil, A victim even now He lies Before the day of sacrifice. 4 In love our guilt He undertakes; Sinless, for sin atonement makes. The great Lawgiver for our aid Obedient to the Law is made. 5 Lord, circumcise our heart, we pray, And take what is not Thine away. Write Thine own name upon our hearts, Thy Law within our inward parts. 6 O Lord, the Virgin-born, to Thee Eternal praise and glory be, Whom with the Father we adore And Holy Ghost forevermore. Amen.
