"Christ Crucified"

A hymn written by Joseph Irons in Zion's Hymns. (in long meter)

1 Corinthians 2:2 For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.

"Christ Crucified"

1. All glory to His precious name,
Who bore His people's guilt and shame;
Who for them liv'd , and for them died,
The name of Jesus crucified.

2. Mercy and justice in Him meet,
In Him salvation is complete;
The law is fully satisfied,
By Jesus Christ the crucified.

3. Herein we see eternal love,
And gain all blessings from above;
A sight of Jesus crucified,
Exalts free grace, and humbles pride.

4. Here then my trembling soul shall rest;
And hope to be for ever blest;
For ever sav'd, and glorified,
With Jesus Christ the crucified .
