Author: Horatius Bonar, 1808-1889 Hymnal: Hymnal and Order of Service #254a (1901) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 I lay my sins on Jesus,
The spotless Lamb of God;
He bears them all, and frees us,
From the accurséd load.
I bring my guilt to Jesus,
To wash my crimson stains
White, in His blood most precious,
Till not a spot remains.
2 I lay my wants on Jesus,
All fullness dwells in Him;
He heals all my diseases,
He doth my soul redeem.
I lay my griefs on Jesus,
My burdens and my cares;
He from them all releases,
He all my sorrows shares.
3 I long to be like Jesus,
Meek, loving, lowly, mild;
I long to be like Jesus,
The Father's holy child.
I long to be with Jesus,
Amid the heavenly throng,
To sing with saints His praises,
To learn the angels' song.
Amen. Topics: Faith and Justification Languages: English Tune Title: CRUCIFIX
