1. It is finished! Blessèd Jesus,/ Thou hast breathed thy latest sigh,/ Teaching us the sons of Adam/ How the Son of God can die. 2. Lifeless lies the piercèd Body,/ Resting in its rocky bed;/ Thou hast left the Cross of anguish/ For the mansions of the dead. 3. In the hidden realms of darkness/ Shines a light unseen before,/ When the Lord of dead and living/ Enters at the lowly door. 4. Lo! in spirit, rich in mercy/ Comes he from the world above,/ Preaching to the souls in prison/ Tidings of his dying love. 5. Lo! the heavenly light around him,/ As he draws his people near;/ All amazed they come rejoicing/ At the gracious words they hear. 6. Patriarch and Priest and Prophet/ Gather round him as he stands,/ In adoring faith and gladness/ Hearing of the piercèd hands. 7. There in lowliest joy and wonder/ Stands the robber by his side,/ Reaping now the blessèd promise/ Spoken by the Crucified. 8. Jesus, Lord of our salvation,/ Let thy mercy rest on me;/ Grant me too, when life is finished,/ Rest in Paradise with thee./ Amen. Words: William Dalrymple Maclagan. Music: Anonymous.
