Jesus Source of Life Eternal
1. Jesus! Source of
life eternal,
Jesus! Author of our breath
Victor o’er the hosts infernal.
By defeat, and shame, and death.
Thou through deepest tribulation
Deigned to pass for our salvation:
Thousand, thousand praises be,
Lord of Glory, unto Thee.
2. Thou, O Son of God, wert bearing
Cruel mockings, hatred, scorn;
Thou, the King of Glory, wearing,
For our sake, the crown of thorn;
Dying, Thou didst us deliver
From the chains of sin for ever:
Thousand, thousand praises be,
Precious Saviour, unto Thee.
3. All the shame
men heaped upon Thee,
Thou didst patiently endure;
Not the pains of death too bitter,
Our redemption to procure.
Wondrous Thy humiliation
To accomplish our salvation:
Thousand, thousand praises be,
Precious Saviour, unto Thee.
4. Heartfelt praise and adoration,
Saviour, thus to Thee we give;
For Thy life humiliation,
For Thy death, whereby we live.
All the grief Thou wert enduring,
All the bliss Thou wert securing:
Evermore the theme shall be
Of thanksgivings, Lord, to Thee.
