249: O LORD, in Thee believing

249: O LORD, in Thee believing

by Samuel Prideaux Tregelles (1813-1875)

1 O LORD, in Thee believing,
Our souls have peace with God,
Eternal life receiving,
The purchase of Thy blood.

2 Our curse and condemnation
Thou barest in our stead;
Secure is our salvation,
In Thee our risen Head.

3 The Holy Ghost revealing
Thy grace hath given us rest,
Thy stripes have been our healing,
Thy love doth make us blest;

4 In Thee the Father sees us
Accepted and complete:
Grace which from evil frees us
For glory makes us meet.
