Hark! the voice of love and mercy
Sounds aloud from Calvary;
See it rends the rocks asunder,
Shakes the earth and veils the sky:
"It is finished! It is finished!" Hear the dying Saviour cry;
"It is finished! It is finished!" Hear the dying Saviour cry.
"It is finished!" What assurance
Do the wondrous words afford!
Heav'nly blessings without measure
Flow to us from Christ the Lord:
"It is finished! It is finished!" Saints, the dying words record;
"It is finished! It is finished!" Saints, the dying words record.
Finished all the types and shadows
Of the ceremonial law;
Finished all that God had promised:
Death and hell no more shall awe.
"It is finished! It is finished!" Saints, from hence your comfort draw;
"It is finished! It is finished!" Saints, from hence your comfort draw.
Saints and angels, shout His praises,
His great finished work proclaim;
All on earth and all in heaven,
Join to bless Immanuel's name:
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Endless glory to the Lamb;
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Endless glory to the Lamb!
BIBLE PASSAGE:
30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.
