See the Destined Day Arise
See the destined day arise!See a willing sacrifice!Jesus, to redeem our loss,Hangs upon the shameful cross;Jesus, who but You could bearWrath so great and justice fair?Every pang and bitter throe,Finishing Your life of woe?
Chorus:Hallelujah! Hallelujah!Lamb of God for sinners slain!Hallelujah! Hallelujah!Jesus Christ, we praise Your name!
Who but Christ had dared to drain,Steeped in gall, the cup of painAnd with tender body bearThorns and nails and piercing spear?Slain for us, the water flowed,Mingled from Your side with blood;Sign to all attesting eyesOf the finished sacrifice.
Holy Jesus, grant us graceIn that sacrifice to placeAll our trust for life renewed,Pardoned sin, and promised good.Grant us grace to sing Your praise‘Round Your throne through endless days,Ever with the sons of light:“Blessing, honor, glory, might!”
