Thy works, not mine, O Christ, Speak gladness to this heart; They tell me all is done; They bid my fear depart. To whom, save thee, Who canst alone For sin atone, Lord, shall I flee? Thy pains, not mine, O Christ, Upon the shameful tree, Have paid the law's full price And purchased peace for me. Thy cross, not mine, O Christ, Has borne the awful load Of sins that none in heav'n Or earth could bear but God. Thy righteousness, O Christ, Alone can cover me: No righteousness avails Save that which is of thee.
