O Lord, What Burdens Thou Didst Bear!

Who himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, in order that, being dead to sins, we may live to righteousness: by whose stripes ye have been healed. 1 Peter 2:24

Grace to you, and peace, from God [the] Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ, who gave himself for our sins, so that he should deliver us out of the present evil world, according to the will of our God and Father; Galatians 1:3,4

  1. Isaiah 53:12, Isaiah 53:4O Lord, what burdens Thou didst bear!

    1 Peter 3:18, Isaiah 53:10Thou stoodest for the sinner there

    1 Peter 2:24, Galatians 2:20To bear all ill for me.

    Acts 8:32,33, John 19:34A Victim led, Thy blood was shed;

  2. Galatians 3:13, Galatians 3:10Death and the curse were in our cup,

    Luke 22:42, Mark 14:35O Lord, 'twas full for Thee!

    Matthew 27:45,46, Matthew 26:42But Thou hast drained the last dark drop,

    Hebrews 10:17,18, 1 John 1:7'Tis empty now for me.

    Matthew 26:39, Matthew 26:42That bitter cup - love drank it up;

    Galatians 2:20Left but the love for me.

  3. Matthew 27:45-51, Mark 15:33,34The tempest's awful voice was heard:

    Matthew 27:45-51, Mark 15:33,34O Lord, it broke on Thee!

    Galatians 3:11-14, 1 Timothy 2:6Thine open bosom was my ward,

    Isaiah 32:2, 1 Timothy 2:6It bore the storm for me.

    Isaiah 52:14, Micah 5:1Thy form was scarred, Thy visage marred;

    2 Samuel 23:4, Romans 5:1Now cloudless peace for me.

  4. 1 Corinthians 15:3, 1 Thessalonians 5:10For me, Lord Jesus, Thou hast died,

    Colossians 3:3, Colossians 2:20And I have died with Thee;

    Luke 24:34, Galatians 5:1Thou'rt risen: my bands are all untied;

    Galatians 2:20, Romans 8:10And now Thou liv'st in me.

    2 Corinthians 4:6, Luke 15:22The Father's face in radiant grace

    2 Corinthians 4:6, Luke 15:22-24Shines now in light on me.
