IT WAS THROUGH GOD'S ETERNAL SPIRIT

 

1. It was thro' God eternal Spirit,

My Saviour came to Calvary:

The Lamb of God, spotless and pure,

Offered Himself a sacrifice.

 

Refrain

O Jesus Lord, my dearest Saviour,

Thy love doth captivate my heart;

To Thee I give my with'ring life

The Father's heart to satisfy!

 

2. And now through God's eternal Spirit

I'm brought to awesome Calvary,

Where I behold His matchless love

In dying for a worm like me.

 

3. On Calvary's brow vict'ry is won -

New hope for fallen race appears;

Turning the page of curse and woe,

Thou hast all things in Thee renewed.

 

4. His cry so solemn, "It is finished!"

Doth rouse the heav'n with rapt'rous praise.

Thy death hast freed me from Death's power.

Thy life hast given life to me.

 

5. What wondrous grace revealed at Calv'ry!

Cleansed is my conscience in Thy blood,

That I might all my dead works conquer

Ever to serve my Lord, my God.

 

6. O Thou my Soul, how can it be

That thou shouldst speak forth all His grace.

My heart is lost in heav'nly sweetness.

My eyes stream forth unceasing tears.
