Thou Son of God-the woman’s Seed (105)

Thou Son of God-the woman’s Seed,
Who didst for us on Calvary bleed,
Beneath sin’s heavy load-
Spoiler of all the power of hell,
Who conquered death, invincible,
Thou Holy One of God!

Thy blood we sing: by blood alone,
With boldness, to the eternal throne
Through Thee we now draw nigh!
It silences the voice of sin,
It makes the guilty conscience clean,
Makes the accuser fly!

Behold us, Lord! a feeble band,
In conflict with the foe we stand,-
The ransomed of Thy cross,-
Yet sing the triumphs of Thy Name:
All other gain but loss!
