  1. 1Jesus, Thy blood and righteousness
  2. My beauty are, my glorious dress;
  3. Midst flaming worlds, in these arrayed,
  4. With joy shall I lift up my head.
  5. 2Bold shall I stand in Thy great day;
  6. For who aught to m charge shall lay?
  7. Fully absolved through these I am
  8. From sin and fear, from guilt and shame.
  9. 3The holy, meek, unspotted Lamb,
  10. Who from the Father's bosom came,
  11. Who died for me, sin to atone,
  12. Now as my Lord and God I own.
  13. 4Lord, I believe Thy precious blood,
  14. Which at the mercy-seat of God
  15. For ever doth for sinners plead,
  16. For me, e'en for my soul was shed.
  17. 5Lord, I believe, were sinners more
  18. Than sands upon the ocean shore,
  19. Thou hast for all a ransom paid,
  20. For all a full atonement made,
  21. 6When from the dust of death I rise
  22. To claim my mansion in the skies,
  23. E'en then this shall be all my plea,--
  24. Jesus hath lived, hath died for me!
