Author: Thomas Kelly (1769-1855) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 192 hymnals Scripture: Romans 5:1-11 Lyrics: 1 We sing the praise of him who died, of him who died upon the cross; the sinner's hope though all deride -- for this we count the world but loss. 2 Inscribed upon the cross we see in shining letters, 'God is love'; he bears our sins upon the tree; he brings us mercy from above. 3 The cross! it takes our guilt away; and holds the fainting spirit up; it cheers with hope the gloomy day, and sweetens every bitter cup; 4 It makes the coward spirit brave, and nerves the feeble arm for fight; it takes its terror from the grave, and gilds the bed of death with light; 5 The balm of life, the cure of woe, the measure and the pledge of love, the sinner's refuge here below, the angels' theme in heaven above.
