Hymn ELH 336:5 Of My Life the Life
From the heart, I thank Thee, Jesus,
For the vast, stupendous load,
Which Thou bearest to release us
From the dreadful wrath of God:
For Thy cruel death and passion,
Agony and sore temptation,
For Thy sharp and bitter pain,
Thanks forever, Lord, Amen!
Prayer
Jesus, my Savior, thank You for taking the punishment I deserve, even suffering the torments of hell on the cross in my place. Amen.
