Jesus, Thou art the Anointed one

Verse 1
Jesus, Thou art th’ Anointed One,
The Saviour sent for man t’ atone,
And bring us back to God:
Thou knowst I for no other look
Than Thee who all my sins hast took,
And bought me with thy blood.

Verse 2
Who cam’st self-emptied from the sky,
Sinners to save and sanctify,
My full Salvation be,
My sickly, dying spirit heal,
And all thy work in me fulfil,
And take me up to Thee.
