O Christ, What Burdens Lyrics

O Christ, what burdens bowed thy head

Our load was laid on thee

Thou suffered in the sinner's stead

To bear all ill for me

A victim led, thy blood was shed

Now there's no load for me

Now there's no load for me

The curse and death were in our cup

O Christ, 'twas full for thee

But thou hast drained the last dark drop

Tis empty now for me

That bitter cup — love drank it up

Left only love for me

Left only love for me

Christ took my place

Now there's no death for me

Now there's no death for me

My ransom paid

Now there's no guilt for me

Now there's no guilt for me

Grace has secured my salvation

Now there is no condemnation

Jehovah lifted up His rod

O Christ, it fell on thee

Thou wast forsaken of thy God

No distance now for me

Thy blood beneath that rod has flowed

Thy bruising healeth me

Thy bruising healeth me

Christ took my place

Now there's no death for me

Now there's no death for me

My ransom paid

Now there's no guilt for me

Now there's no guilt for me

Grace has secured my salvation

Now there is no condemnation

Grace has secured my salvation

Now there is no condemnation

For me, Lord Jesus, thou hast died

And I have died in thee

Thou rose: my chains are all untied

And now thou liv'st in me

The Father's face of radiant grace

Shines now in light on me

Shines now in light on me

Christ took my place

Now there's no death for me

Now there's no death for me

My ransom paid

Now there's no guilt for me

Now there's no guilt for me

Grace has secured my salvation

Now there is no condemnation
