1. O blessed day, when first was pour'd
The Blood of our Redeeming Lord:
O blessed day, when first began
His sufferings borne for sinful man!
2. Scarce enter'd on this life of woe,
His Infant Blood begins to flow;
A foretaste of His death He feels,
An earnest of His love reveals.
3. From Heav'n descending to fulfil
The bidding of His Father's Will,
A Victim even now He lies
Before the day of sacrifice.
4. For love of us His woes begin;
The sinless suffers for our sin;
The Law's great Maker for our aid
Obedient to the Law is made.
5. The wound His through the Law endures
Our freedom from that Law secures;
Henceforth a holier law prevails,
The law of love which never fails.
6. Lord, circumcise our hearts, we pray,
And take what is not Thine away;
Write Thine own Name within our hearts,
Thy law upon our inmost parts.
7. O Lord, the Virgin-born, to Thee
Eternal praise and glory be,
Whom with the Father we adore
And Holy Ghost for evermore.
