Sin laid upon Christ

LO, Christ hath suffer'd for us all
When Enemies we were,
Therefore we will thy Name extoll,
Whose love did thus appear;

For we like Sheep have gone astray,
And ready were to fall;
And God hath lain the load on thee,
To give rest to us all.

Thy precious Praises therefore, Lord,
Sincerely let us sing,
And land thy Name with one accord,
O God and heavenly King;

For all thy loving-kindness, Lord,
And for thy truth divine;
For thou hast made thy holy Word
O're all thy Name to shine.

Help us to praise thee, and to live
Wholly alone to thee,
And not forget from whence doth come
Our present liberty.

O shine upon thy Church always,
And bless our joynt-endeavour;
And prosper thou our handy-work
Now and the same for ever.
