996--Jesus, Savior, Son of God,

Jesus, Savior, Son of God,

996

	1.	Jesus, Savior, Son of God,
		Bearer of the sinner's load,
		Breaker of the captive's chain,
		Cleanser of the guilty's stain.
	2.	Thou the sinner's death hast died,
		Thou for us wast crucified;
		For our sins They flesh was torn,
		Thou our penalty hast borne.
	3.	Savior, Surety, Lamb of God,
		Thou hast bought us with Thy blood;
		Thou hast wiped the debt away,
		Nothing left for us to pay;
	4.	Nothing left for us to bear,
		Nothing left for us to share
		But the pardon and the bliss,
		But the love, the light, the peace.
	5.	I to Thee will look and live,
		And, in looking, praises give;
		Looking lightens, looking heals,
		Looking all the gladness seals.
	6.	Jesus, Savior, Son of God,
		Bearer of the sinner's load,
		I would rise to Thee above,
		I would look, and praise, and love.
