Mark 15: They crucified Him
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 11 (1871)
Religion
Prostrate, with eyes of faith I see
My Saviour fasten'd to the tree,
A victim on that altar laid.
Himself presenting to the skies.
The grand vicarious sacrifice,
The Righteous in the sinner's stead.
Well-pleasing to our God above,
His sacrifice of life and love
I plead before the gracious throne:
Father, a prodigal receive,
And bid a pardon'd rebel live,
The purchase of Thy bleeding Son.
