The Holy One Who Knew No Sin

Music by English traditional, words by Hannah K. Burlingham


The Holy One who knew no sin,
God made Him sin for us;
The Savior died our souls to win,
Upon the shameful cross.
His precious blood alone availed
To wash our sins away;
Through weakness He o'er hell prevailed,
Through death He won the day.

His beauty's shining far above
Our feeble power of praise,
And we shall live and learn His love
Through everlasting days.
The knowing this, that us He loves,
Has made our cup run o'er;
Jesus, Your name our spirit moves,
Today and evermore.
