| 6.6.8.4.D. sung to Westland 1 THE Father sent the Son A ruined world to save; Man meted to the Sinless One The cross --- the grave: Blest Substitute from God, Wrath's awful cup He drained; Laid down His life, and e'en the tomb's Reproach sustained. 2 The new and living way Stands open now to heaven; Thence, where the blood doth speak alway, God's gift is given. The river of His grace, Through righteousness supplied, Is flowing o'er the barren place Where Jesus died! 3 The Lord shall come again! The Conqueror must reign! No tongue but shall confess Him then, The Lamb once slain: Jesus is worthy now All homage to receive; Oh, let us now before Him bow, And to Him cleave. | Alternative tunes (6.6.8.4.D.)
