Oh! if I of Christ have this knowledge divine,

The fulness of heavenly wisdom is mine.

Christ, Thou art the sole oblation

That I’ll bring before my God;

In his sight I’ve acceptation

Only through thy streaming blood:

Immaculate righteousness now I’ve acquired,

Since Thou on the tree of the Cross hast expired;

The robe of Salvation for ever is mine,

In this shall my faith through eternity shine.
