(Verses 1, 2, and 6 of this Hymn, are set to the tune 277,
It is finished, John xix. 30. Ai
1 NS finish'd! so the Saviour cry'd,
And meekly bow'd his head, and dy'd:
'Tis finish'd!-Yes, the race is run, The battle fought, the victory won. 2 'Tis finish'd-all that heaven decreed, And all the ancient prophets said, Is now fulfill'd, as was design'd, In me the Saviour of mankind. 3 'Tis finish'd-Aaron now no more Must stain his robes with purple gore; The sacred veil is rent in twain, And Jewish rites no more remain.
4 'Tis finish'd-this my dying groan
Shall sins of every kind atone:
Millions shall be redeem'd from death
By this
my last expiring breath,
5 'Tis finish'd-Heaven is reconcil'd,
And all the powers of darkness spoil'd:"
Peace, love, and happiness again
Return, and dwell with sinful men.
6 'Tis finish'd let the joyful sound
Be heard through all the nations round :
'Tis finish'd let the echo fly
on a Fed Thro' heaven and hell, thro' earth and sky.
Gratitude to God for Redemption, Eph. i. 7, 11.
1 SHALL Jésus descend from the skies
To atone for our sins by his blood,
And shall we such goodness despise,
And rebels still be to our God?
2 [No brute could be ever so
Shall man thus ungrateful then prove?
Forbid it, O God of all grace!
Forbid it, thou Spirit of love!
3 The devils would laugh us to
o scorn,
For folly so shameful as this,
O let us to God then return,
Sure never was goodness like his.
4 He sav'd us, or we had been lost,
Nor comfort nor hope had e'er known :
Yet he knew this salvation would cost
No less than the blood of his Son.
5 Thro' him we forgiveness shall find,
And taste the sweet blessings of peace:
If, contrite and humbly resign'd,
We trust in his promised grace.ị toàn 6 This world then, with all its gay joy
That its thousands has snar'd and undone May tempt but shall never destroy
Whom Jesus has mark'd for his own. 7 While here thro' the desert we stray, Our God shall be all our delight
Our pillar of cloud in the day,
And also of fire in the night;
8 Till, the Jordan of death safely pass'd,
We land on the heavenly shore,
Where we the hid manna shall taste,
Nor hunger nor thirst any more..
9 And there, while his glories we see,
And feast on the joys of his love, bu
We chang'd to his likeness shall be,
And then shall all gratitude prove.

Christ's Atonement.
THOU, who didst thy glory leave
Apostate sinners to retrieve
From nature's deadly fall,-
If thou hast bought me with a price,
My sins against me ne'er shall rise
For thou hast borne them all.
2 And wast thou punish'd in my stead?"
Didst thou without the city bleed
To expiate my stain?
On earth my God vouchsaf'd to dwell
And made of infinite avail
The sufferings of the man.
3 Behold him for transgressors giv'n!
Behold th' incarnate King of heaven
For us, his foes, expire!
Amaz❜d, O earth the tidings hear!
He bore that we might never bear
His father's righteous ire.
4 Ye saints, the man of sorrows bless,
The God, for your unrighteousness,
Deputed to atone ;
Praise, till, with all the ransom'd throng,
Ye sing the never-ending song,
And see him on his throne.

Gratitude for the Atonement.
1 HAIL! thou once despised Jesus,
Hail thou Galilean king!
Thou didst suffer to release us;
Thou didst free salvation bring:
Hail thou agonizing Saviour,
Bearer of our sin and shame!
By thy merits we find favour;
Life is given thro' 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
Thro' the virtue of thy blood;
Open'd is the gate of heaven;
Peace is made 'twixt man and God. 't
3 Jesus, hail! enthron'd 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.
4 Worship, honour, power, and blessing, Thou art worthy to receive;
Loudest praises, without ceasing,
Meet it is for us to give:
Help, ye bright angelic spirits!
Bring your sweetest, noblest lays!
Help to sing our Saviour's merits;
Help to chant Immanuel's praise.

5 Jesus, answer from above,
Is not all thy nature lave ?
Pity from thine eye let fall;
Bless me while on thee I call;
Am I thine, thou Son of God?
Take the purchase of thy blood.
6 Father, see the victim slain,
Offer'd up for guilty men:
Hear his blood-prevailing cry;
Let thy bowels then reply!
Then thro' him the sinner see;
Then, in Jesus, look on me.
