Hail! Thou Once Despised Jesus

Congregational singing
Metropolitan Tabernacle, London
Tune: HYFRYDOL
Hail! Thou once despisèd Jesus,
Hail, Thou Galilean King!
Thou didst suffer to release us;
Thou didst free salvation bring:
Hail, Thou agonising Saviour,
Bearer of our sin and shame;
By Thy merits we find favour;
Life is given through Thy name.
Paschal Lamb, by God appointed,
All our sins on Thee were laid;
By almighty Love anointed,
Thou hast full atonement made:
All Thy people are forgiven
Through the virtue of Thy blood;
Opened is the gate of Heaven;
Man is reconciled to God.
Jesus, hail! enthroned in glory,
There for ever to abide;
All the heavenly host adore Thee,
Seated at Thy Father’s side:
There for sinners Thou art pleading;
There Thou dost our place prepare;
Ever for us interceding,
Till in glory we appear.
Worship, honour, power and blessing,
Thou art worthy to receive;
Loudest praises, without ceasing,
Meet it is for us to give:
Help, ye bright angelic spirits!
Bring your sweetest, noblest lays;
Help to sing our Saviour’s merits,
Help to chant Emmanuel’s praise!

It is a good song. I think about despised Jesus for me. Thank you, my savior Jesus!

Thank You Jesus that You took away my sins at the Cross of Calvary where You were punished in my own place and that You rose from the dead!

One of my favorite songs.
Thanks for this great singing by the Believers in the Metropolitan Tabernacle.
I think this Metropolitan Tabernacle is the church where Charles Spurgeon preached.
It was a great experience that I could had some chats with the Believers in that chapel, in October 2014.
