Who is this that comes from far

Verse 1
Who is this, that comes from far
Clad in garments dipt in blood!
Strong triumphant traveller,
Is he man, or is he God?

Verse 2
I that speak in righteousness,
Son of God and man I am,
Mighty to redeem your race;
Jesus is your Saviour’s name.

Verse 3
Wherefore are thy garments red,
Died as in a crimson sea?
They that in the wine-fat [wine-vat] tread
Are not stain’d so much as thee.

Verse 4
I the Father’s fav’rite Son,
Have the dreadful wine-press trod,
Borne the vengeful wrath alone,
All the fiercest wrath of God.
