424. "The blood that speaketh"

1 Father, hear the blood of Jesus,
Speaking in thine ears above:
From impending wrath release us;
Manifest thy pardoning love.
Oh, receive us to thy favor,--
For his only sake receive;
Give us to the bleeding Saviour,
Let us by his dying live.

2 "To thy pardoning grace receive them,"
Once he prayed upon the tree;
Still his blood cries out, "Forgive them;
All their sins were laid on me."
Still our Advocate in heaven
Prays the prayer on earth begun,--
"Father, show their sins forgiven;
Father, glorify thy Son!"
