Not on the tears which I have shed;
Not on the sorrows I have known:
Another’s tears; Another’s griefs:
On them I rest, on them alone.
Jesus, O Son of God, I build
On what Thy cross has done for me;
There both my death and life I read;
My guilt, my pardon there I see.
Lord, I believe; O deal with me
As one who has Thy Word believed!
