Which in this sacred rite
Shines forth so full, so free, in rays
Of purest living light.
2 O wondrous death! O precious blood!
For us so freely spilt,
To cleanse our sin-polluted souls
From every stain of guilt.
3 O covenant of life and peace,
By blood and suff'ring sealed!
All the rich gifts of Gospel grace,
Are here to faith revealed.
4 Jesus, we bow our souls to Thee,
Our life, our hope, our all,
While we with thankful, contrite hearts
Thy dying love recall. Scripture: John 15:13 Used With Tune: BYEFIELD
O Love Divine, O Matchless Grace
