Let Thy Blood in Mercy Poured

(JESUS, MEINE ZUVERSICHT. 7.8.7.8.7.7)
1.

Let thy blood in mercy poured,
let thy gracious body broken,
be to me, O gracious Lord,
of thy boundless love the token.

Refrain:
Thou didst give thyself for me,
now I give myself to thee.

2.

Thou didst die that I might live;
blessed Lord, thou cam'st to save me;
all that love of God could give
Jesus by his sorrows gave me.

Refrain:
Thou didst give thyself for me,
now I give myself to thee.

3.

By the thorns that crowned thy brow,
by the spear wound and the nailing,
by the pain and death, I now
claim, O Christ, thy love unfailing.

Refrain:
Thou didst give thyself for me,
now I give myself to thee.

4.

Wilt thou own the gift I bring?
All my penitence I give thee;
thou art my exalted King,
of thy matchless love forgive me.

Refrain:
Thou didst give thyself for me,
now I give myself to thee.
