Raised Again for Our Justification

Verse 1

In Jesus who was crucify'd, Alone we glory and confide; Let ev'ry tongue with joy confess, The Lord our strength and righteousness.

Verse 2

For us redemption to obtain, The spotless Lamb of God was slain; Saints triumph in his glorious name, Who by his death our foes o'ercame.

Verse 3

To banish all our griefs and fears, For us the great high Priest appears; Jesus that suffer'd in our stead, For ever lives our case to plead.

Verse 4

Behold, enthron'd at God's right hand, Our powerful intercessor stand! The Father's reconciled face Our joyful souls with rapture trace.

Verse 5

Whoe'er shall God's elect condemn? Since Christ that di'd now lives again; Nor earth, nor hell, can e'er remove His saints, his fav'rites, from his love.
