HYMN 39.
A Bleeding Christ, and the Bleeding Heart.
1 How gracious and how good, O Lord, art thou to Sinners vile; Thy Wrath is o'er, and thou on us, in Jesus Christ, doth smile? 2 Sing Praise ye tender-hearted ones, lift up God's Praise on high; For you shall live for evermore, yea, live and never die.
1 HOw gracious and how good, O Lord, art thou to Sinners vile; Thy Wrath is o'r, and thou on us, in Jesus Christ, doth smile? 2 Sing Praise ye tender-hearted ones, lift up God's Praise on high; For you shall live for evermore, yea, live and never die.
3 Behold a bleeding Christ! O see his side, how did it run With purple Gore? Can ye forbear to grieve, shed tears, and mourn! 4 But did he die, and in our stead, that we might never die? O love this Lord, and sing his Praise; and on him all rely!
