It Is Finished! Blessed Jesus
It is finished! Blessed Jesus, Thou hast breathed thy latest sigh, Teaching us the sons of Adam How the Son of God can die.
Lifeless lies the pierced Body, Resting in its rocky bed; Thou hast left the Cross of anguish For the mansions of the dead.
In the hidden realms of darkness Shines a light unseen before, When the Lord of dead and living Enters at the lowly door.
Lo, in spirit, rich in mercy Comes he from the world above, Preaching to the souls in prison Tidings of his dying love.
Lo, the heavenly light around him, Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com As he draws his people near; All amazed they come rejoicing At the gracious words they hear.
Patriarch and priest and prophet Gather round him as he stands, In adoring faith and gladness Hearing of the pierced hands.
There in lowliest joy and wonder Stands the robber by his side, Reaping now the blessed promise Spoken by the Crucified.
Jesus, Lord of our salvation, Let thy mercy rest on me; Grant me too, when life is finished, Rest in Paradise with thee.
