Luke 22:65: Jesus, Son of God and man

From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 11 (1871)

Religion

Jesus, Son of God and man,
Thy Person from the skies
Turns the wrongs Thou dost sustain
Into a sacrifice:
Thus Thou dost the pattern show
Of patient meek humility,
Fountain of all grace below,
For all Thy church and me.

Very God I Thee confess.
In Thy oblation join.
Imitate t "ie lowhness,
And patient love Divine:
Virtue from the Fountain-head
And grace for grace I still receive,
Crucified with Thee and dead,
With Thee for ever live.
