Hebrews 9:28: Jesus, Thy bleeding love

Jesus, Thy bleeding love
Our thankful hearts approve:
Once a spotless Victim slain,
Thou did'st here Thy life resign,
Bear for every child of man,
Pacify the wrath Divine.

Our sins Thy body bore,
And justice asks no more;
Thy sufficient sacrifice
Did for all mankind atone:
Now Thou reign'st above the skies,
High on Thine eternal throne.

But while for Thee we mourn,
Thou wilt to us return,
Wilt the second time appear
Saviour of the faithful race;
I shall then behold Thee near,
I shall see Thy heavenly face.

God's everlasting Son
Shall on the clouds come down!
How unlike the Man of woe,
Him that groan'd on Calvary /
Him that tasted death below,
Him that purchased life for me!

Come then our heavenly Friend,
Sorrow and death to end,
Pure, millennial joy to give,
Now appear on earth again,
Now Thy people saved receive,
Now begin Thy glorious reign!
