JESUS, THY BLOOD AND RIGHTEOUSNESS
1. Jesus, Thy blood
and righteousness
My beauty are, my
glorious dress;
'Midst flaming
worlds, in these arrayed,
With joy shall I
lift up my head.
2. Bold shall I
stand in Thy great day,
For who aught to my
charge shall lay?
Fully, through
these, absolved I am
From sin and fear,
from guilt and shame.
3. This spotless
robe the same appears
When ruined nature
sinks in years;
No age can change
its constant hue;
Its glory is for
ever new.
4. Oh! let the dead
now hear Thy voice;
Now bid Thy
banished ones rejoice;
Their beauty this,
their glorious dress,
Jesus, Thy blood
and righteousness.
