John 19:7: We have a law, and by our law He ought, &c
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 12 (1872)
Religion
The Son of God Himself He made,
Himself He proved the Son of God,
I he law of love Divine obey'd,
Of justice, which required His blood.
His blood must purge our sinful stain,
Jehovah's vengeance satisfy,
Salvation for the world obtain;
And by this law He ought to die.
