Verse 1
’Tis finish’d! ’Tis done!
The spirit is fled,
The pris’ner is gone,
The Christian is dead!
The Christian is living
In Jesus his[1] love,
And gladly receiving
A kingdom above.
Verse 2
All honour and praise
Are Jesus’s due;
Supported by grace,
He fought his way thro’;
Triumphantly glorious
Thro’ Jesus’s zeal,
And more than victorious
O’er sin, death, and hell.
Verse 3
Then let us record
The conquering name,
Our Captain and Lord
With shoutings proclaim:
Who trust in his passion
And follow our head,
To certain salvation
We all shall be led.
Verse 4
O Jesus, lead on
Thy militant care,
And give us the crown
Of righteousness there;
Where dazled with glory
The seraphim gaze,
Or prostrate adore thee
In silence of praise.
Verse 5
Come, Lord, and display
Thy sign in the sky,
And bear us away
To mansions on high;
The kingdom be given,
The purchase divine,
And crown us in heaven
Eternally thine.
