O Jesus, Lord, Thou stoodest in my stead;

God's holy wrath was poured upon Thy head;

For me Thou once wast numbered with the dead—

For me, O Lord, for me.

O Jesus, Lord, Thy blood has brought me nigh,

Has cleansed me from my sins of scarlet dye;

For me Thy blood was shed on Calvary—

For me, O Lord, for me.

O Jesus, Lord, unchanging is Thy love,

Thou liv'st for me at God's right hand above;

Thy tender care for me I daily prove—

For me, O Lord, for me.

For me, O Lord, Thou hast done all things well;

Though feebly here, Thy praise my voice shall swell

When with Thee, Lord, I shall for ever dwell—

With Thee, O Lord, with Thee.
