To Hang My Soul In Thee
melody
O Seed of David, Son of God;
Thou from eternity
Were born to bear our curse as one
That hangeth on a tree.
(Gal.3:13)
For peace on earth could not prevail
Nor God's good will conveyed,
'Till sin's demand 'fore heaven's veil
At Calvary was paid.
(Col.2:14)
Lo, crushed that Seed in earth was placed,
But rose a Holy Vine;
A Tree of Life replete with grace
And mercy for mankind.
(Jn.12:24)
How blest that hour of brokenness
When mercy heard my plea
To save me from my guilty place--
To hang my soul in Thee.
(Jn.15:5,7)
