1 A trembling soul, I sought the Lord,
My sin confessed, my guilt deplored;
How soft and sweet, His word to me,
I took thy place, and died for thee.
Refrain:
No other hope, no other plea;
He took my place, and died for me;
O precious Lord, of Calvary!
He took my place and died for me.
2 Here rests my heart; assurance sweet,
His blessèd work He will complete,
Since in His love, so great and free,
He took my place, and died for me. [Refrain]
3 When sorrow veils the smiling day,
When evil foes beset my way,
Abundant grace in Him I see,
He took my place, and died for me. [Refrain]
4 No room for doubt, no room for fears,
When to my view the cross appears,
My joyful song shall ever be,
He took my place, and died for me. [Refrain]
