Finished

“It is finished.”  -John 19:30             
                             

’Tis finished! The Messiah dies,

Cut off for sins, but not his own!

Accomplished is the sacrifice,

The great redeeming work is done;

Finished the first transgression is,

And purged the guilt of actual sin,

And everlasting righteousness

Is now to all the world brought in.


’Tis finished, all my guilt and pain,

I want no sacrifice beside,

For me, for me, the Lamb is slain,

And I am more than justified;

Sin, death, and hell are now subdued,

All grace is now to sinners given,

And lo, I plead th’ atoning blood,

For pardon, holiness, and heaven.
