O perfect life of love

1.

O perfect life of love

All, all is finished now

All that He left His throne above

To do for us below

2.

No work is left undone

Of all the Father willed

His toils and sorrows, one by one

The Scriptures have fulfilled

3.

No pain that we can share

But He has felt its smart

All forms of human grief and care

Have pierced that tender heart

4.

And on his thorn-crowned head

And on His sinless soul

Our sins in all their guilt were laid

That He might make us whole

5.

In perfect love He dies

For me He dies, for me

O all-atoning sacrifice

I cling by faith to Thee

6.

In every time of need

Before the judgment throne

Thy work, O lamb of God, I’ll plead

Thy merits, not my own

7.

Yet work, O Lord, in me

As thou for me hast wrought

And let my love the answer be

To grace Thy love has brought
