In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) First Line: For us the dear Redeemer died Lyrics: 1 For us the dear Redeemer died;
Why are we then ashamed?
We stand for ever justified,
And cannot be condemned.
2 Though we believe not, he is true;
The work is in his hand;
His gracious purpose he will do.
And all his word shall stand.
3 If once the love of Christ we feel
Upon our hearts impressed,
The mark of that celestial seal
Can never be erased.
4 The Lord will scourge us if we stray,
And wound us with distress;
But he will never take away
His covenant of peace.
5 The peace which Jesus’ blood secures,
And fixes in our hearts,
To all eternity endures,
Nor finally departs. Topics: Perseverance Languages: English
