Faith's Claim

Charles Wesley • English

Primary Scripture: Isaiah 53:6

Verse 1

All ye that pass by, To Jesus draw nigh: To you it is nothing that Jesus should die? Your ransom and peace, Your surety He is; Come, see if there ever was sorrow like His.

Verse 2

He dies to atone For sins not His own; Your debt He hath paid, and your work He hath done. Ye all may receive The peace He did leave, Who made intercession, "My Father, forgive!"

Verse 3

For you and for me, He prayed on the tree; The prayer is accepted, the sinner is free. That sinner am I, Who on Jesus rely, And come for the pardon God cannot deny.

Verse 4

My pardon I claim, A sinner I am,-- A sinner believing in Jesus Christ's name. He purchased the grace Which now I embrace: O Father, Thou know'st he hath died in my place. Amen.
