He was crucified. (cont.)

4	His streaming feet transfix'd and torn, The fountain gushing from his side.
5	Thou dear, thou suff'ring Son of God, How doth thy heart to sinners move! Sprinkle on us thy precious blood, Constrain us with thy dying love!

HYMN 15. Third Part. L.M.
It is Christ that died.

1	SINNERS rejoice, 'tis Christ that died: Behold the blood flows from his side! To wash your souls, and raise you high, To dwell with God above the sky.
2	'Tis Christ that died, O love divine! Here mercy, truth, and justice shine; God reconcii'd and sinners bought With Jesus' blood — how sweet the thought!
3	'Tis Christ that died, a truth indeed, On which my faith would ever feed: Nor let the works that I perform Be nam'd, to swell a haughty worm.
4	'Tis Christ that died, 'tis Christ was slain, To save my soul from endless pain; 'Tis Christ that died shall be my theme, While I have breath to praise his name,

HYMN 16. First Part. L.M.
Christ must die to satisfy for our sins.

HYMN 16. Second Part. L.M.
Behold the Lamb of God.

1	BEHOLD the sin-atoning Lamb, With wonder, gratitude, and love! To take away our guilt and shame, See him descending from above.
2	Our sins and griefs on him were laid; He meekly bore the mighty load: Our ransom-price he fully paid, In groans and tears, in sweat and blood.

HYMN 16. Third Part. C.M.
